The Lizard Peninsula Circular Walk, Cornwall
Best for: cake breaks
Starting from Kynance Cove, the Lizard coastal trail takes you
on a ramble to the most southerly tip of mainland Britain. Passing
wildflower meadows, dramatic rock formations and secluded bays,
this route might seem like a somewhat leisurely one, but don’t be
fooled: there are plenty of challenging climbs throughout. For that
reason, we strongly suggest attempting it with an experienced mate
– and by that we mean someone who’s ventured further than their
local common. Enjoy a picnic pit stop at Polpeor Cove, or opt for a
seafood lunch or snack break at the water-facing Wavecrest
Café, whose Cornish cream teas and delightful sponge cakes make
every step worthwhile.
