Some beautiful streams and woodlands; great views. A fairly direct but hilly route, mainly on very quiet back roads and traversing small valleys with beautiful streams and woodlands. Includes one stile (avoidable via a short detour). A short stretch beside the busy B3359 and a section without pavement in and out of Lostwithiel. No supply stops along the route, so stock up at Lostwithiel or Liskeard. The section between Scorn Mill and through the Deerpark is a delight.

Lunch: No places to stop for supplies along the route, so stock up at either end.

Warnings: A 100-metre stretch beside the busy, fast B3359 (good verge and visibility), and a section of Lanwithan Road with no pavement, especially care heading south on the hill.
