This part of the Cornish coastline is one of the most strenuous; there are paths as steep elsewhere, but not in such profusion. The highest point of the entire walk is along here: High Cliff - a name we remember vividly! While you're gasping for breath at the top of a climb, look around, the scenery is magnificent and, away from the tourist centres, there are very few people either.

This is my favourite part of Cornwall: Totally unsurpassed for wild, rugged coastline and jagged, teeth-like rocks ready to catch the unwary sailor.
