We have the 17-minute walk back to the Coastal Path.

Today's hike is Strenuous to start and then becomes easy
9.2 miles (14.8km)

Beginning in the subtropical cove of Lamorna and passing through an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the path changes quite dramatically as it crosses rugged cliffs, some with difficult ascents and descents, and then turns easy walking on tarmac though Newlyn to Penzance.
Mousehole, known for its tiny harbour and narrow streets of granite cottages, is a good place for a relatively quiet refreshment stop, before the more bustling stretch around Mount's Bay.

Newlyn has the 3rd biggest Harbour in Britain and apparently also has the house with the smallest window in the United Kingdom!

After passing the city of Penzance we see the majestic sight of St. Micheal's Mount as we head to today's finish location, the ancient town of Marazion.

Participants will need packed lunch and at least 2 litres of fluids, rain and wind proofs, good fitting boots, sun hat, sunglasses and lotion. Personal medication. Participants are responsible for their own health and well-being and should be able to keep up and not forge ahead of the leader.

We walk at about 2mph / 4kmph.
