Lamorna to Mousehole (2.5 miles - medium difficulty)

Enlarged Property Image

This is a circular walk, starting and ending in Mousehole. Park your car at Mousehole in one of the car parks, or on the roadside (although roadside parking is extremely limited during the summer months). From the village centre, walk up past the Bird Hospital and the Carn-Du Hotel. Then take the path marked "Lamorna Inland Route". Upon reaching Lamorna harbour, take the path and steps up and away from the harbour. The path continues up the side of Carn-Du and then down the other side, and onto Kemyel Cliffs, passing Kemyel Point. Further on, you will pass the Cornwall Wildlife Trust Reserve and a stream at Slinke Dean. The path then continues on to Penzer Point. After Penzer Point, you will pass a Coastguard Lookout, eventually returning to the "Lamorna Inland Route" sign. From this sign, retrace your steps back down past the Bird Hospital and hotel down into Mousehole.
