Redruth
UK - Cornwall - Near Tregajorran - Carn Brae - Purple heather by JulesFoto

Redruth to Penryn (Cornwall)

7 minutes direct from Falmouth Town.

The views around Lanner were crazy, stretching for miles across Cornwall. A fantastic, surprisingly direct rural route with a nice mix of footpaths, quiet back roads and grassy fields, plus the old Mineral Tramways Mining Trail. Not too hilly, very peaceful and with some heavily overgrown field sections in summer and a few difficult stiles and gates; some rights of way have been adapted by landowners. Uses the Mineral Tramways Mining Trail. Easy buses back from both Redruth and Penryn.

Time: 3h30–6h30

Lunch: A pub at Stithians, roughly half way. Shops at Stithians and Lanner.

Warnings: Several heavily overgrown sections, especially around Tresevean in summer, where field edges may be easier than the path line. A few difficult stiles and gates. Crossing the A39 is tricky, requiring patience for a gap.

Walk details: Slow Ways.
