Coverack Cove
Towards Lowland Point
way back to Coverack

Description

Park your car at Coverack car park (in front of the cove going down the B3294) or the Charity car park above.

(S/E) Turn left to the Coast path (follow "Public Byway Porthoustock 3 1/2m") when the main road to Coverack bends sharply right at the end of the slope. Follow straight this dead-end, go past Porthgwara Nursing Home until you reach a junction next to a bench.

(1) Go straight towards "Lowland point" signpost, go slightly down the path on the right leaving the driveway. Enjoy beautiful coast views along this flat coastal path for almost 2 miles until you reach Lowland Point.

(2) Continue until you go through a low wall and a "stone" stile next to a "notice danger" signpost (quarry). You reach a junction where you leave the coastal path turning left towards the public footpath "St Keverne 2 1/4m". Go up the steep ascent with handrail leading to a driveway. Bear left following "To Coverack via Trevalsoe" and turn left to the field when you join a blue building. Go across fields along hedges, then go through two stiles (yellow arrows) crossing over the small road next to a farm on your right. Past three fields leading to a track, cross it over and go through a gate in front of you until you reach a junction with yellow arrows signpost.

(3) Go straight entering Trevalsoe, you go past a beautiful Thatched-roof house and leave the road which bends right to a small path in front of you. You reach a farm and continue along the small road until you take the path (yellow arrow) next to a metal gate when the road bends right. Descend this pleasant path overlooking Coverack leading to the first junction seen at the beginning of the walk. Turn right to this driveway which goes back to the car park.(S/E)
