South Cornwall Coast Path Walk Combines Cliffside Adventure, Literary History, and Harbour Views
A guided hiking experience along the South West Coast Path in Cornwall is offering walkers a more challenging coastal route featuring rugged cliffs, hidden coves, and sweeping sea views across one of England’s most scenic walking regions.
The journey begins with a short transfer to Polmear before continuing on foot along varied terrain that includes notable ascents and descents. Along the route, participants experience wide views across St Austell Bay toward Gribbin Head, with opportunities to observe coastal activity and changing sea conditions below the cliffs.
Guides provide commentary throughout the walk, highlighting both natural features and cultural references, including literary connections to author Daphne du Maurier, whose works are closely associated with the Cornish landscape. These storytelling elements add historical depth to the physical experience of the coastal path.
The route passes through key locations such as Polkerris harbour and Polridmouth Cove before returning toward Fowey, with optional visits to nearby heritage sites where time allows. Organisers describe the walk as a blend of physical challenge, coastal scenery, and cultural interpretation delivered in small group settings for a more personal experience.

Customer Reviews
Fantastic walk, fabulous views, slippy in places but very doable. Stopped for lunch in Polruan
Beautiful views of Fowey, signs very easy to follow and lots of blackberries!
An amazing walk from Fowey, where you have to take the ferry to Bodinnick, and then walk up the hill past the Ferry Man Inn and the church on the right, just past the church on the right is the entrance to the Hall Walk to Pont Pill and then onto Polruan and then the Ferry back across the river to Fowey. It’s a great walk with not too many steep hills or slopes and the most beautiful scenery that you will see.
