South West Coast Path - Falmouth to Plymouth
The varied coastline between Falmouth and Plymouth encapsulates the best of what South Cornwall has to offer. Everything from medieval castles and dramatic coastlines to colourful harbours and quaint unspoilt fishing villages. The warm climate of the South of England provides a fantastic walking environment and on stretches of this walk it will only be yourself and the wild Cornish beauty all around you!
Starting your adventure with a small ferry crossing to St Mawes, wander around the fabulous castle grounds before following the southern coastline to Plymouth. Lots of variety in this section of the South West Coast Path - striking coastline, hidden harbours, quaint villages and great local caught seafood are a few of the highlights. Megavissey, Charlestown and Fowey are all great places to add extra nights and why not take time to visit the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan on route. This section of the path finishes in Plymouth or perhaps you might want to follow the path further on by adding one of our other itineraries!
Highlights:
- St Mawes Castle - Henry VIII's coastal artillery fortress.
- The views from Batten Heights - the highest point on the whole coast path.
- The town of Fowey with its historic charm.
- Whitewashed cottages and pretty fishing villages.
- The tall ships at the tiny port of Charlestown.
