Cornwall has always been a favorite holiday destination and its dramatic coastline, picturesque villages, vibrant culture and delicious cuisine. For visitors who have traveled in the region, the benefits of a Cornish holiday need no explaining, but for our international friends, who have yet to explore outside of London, a visit to Cornwall will give you a taste very different from English life. In this article I describe one of my favorite walks in Cornwall and many recommend it to anyone visiting the region.
Parts of the walk between St Agnes and the Jericho Valley have been beaten so often by my sturdy shoes, they know practically their own way. One of my favorite sections of coastal path for its spectacular views of the turquoise waters of the vast expanse of beach Penhale, tail still present salt suspended in the air, dramatic cliffs bordered with a mosaic of gorse, heather and savings, the more it conveniently links my house to the beach, pub and restaurant on the edge of my favorites.
St. Agnes was once a center of mining activity, the relics that are scattered all around this walk. Today, it is still a very village-based community with a friendly population boosted during the summer by the visitors attracted by the unspoilt charm of the village, its beautiful coastline and popular beach. The village is well equipped for walkers, with some beautiful cottages and hotels typically English (http://www.cornwalltoday.co.uk/Accommodation/Bed+and+Breakfast/Newquay+and+Perranporth.aspx) and superb restaurants that take advantage of Cornwall fantastic local produce.
On this walk you must first head south on the coast path up a fairly steep climb away from the picturesque Cove Trevaunance. Just above the beach, if you look carefully at low tide, you'll see scattered stones of the ancient port of walls, deposited when storms swept away there in 1915/16. During a high tide with a slight swell, you can see one or two of the seals that live there putting in an appearance.
Continuing along the coast trail, you'll be rewarded with breathtaking views - careful though, some drops are quite sheer in places. You will pass a number of capped mine shafts and a couple of benches where you can enjoy the view of Bawden Rocks, also known as the man and his. All swimmers were daring the village swimming the mile on this rock and back.
After about half a mile along the coast path you head inland and towards the Beacon hill 192 meters high, which overlooks St Agnes. The legend says that a giant called Bolster could stand with one foot on the tag and the other on Carn Brea six miles. If you fancy a detour then trek up to her fantastic views from Padstow in the north to the clay country and south of St Ives.
Otherwise, the road runs along the bottom of the tag, then follows a path to St Agnes village. Here the people bustling about their daily business will be brushing shoulders with day trippers and holidaymakers. Stop for a browse around some of the fascinating arts and crafts galleries, or pause for a coffee outside the St Agnes Hotel. If you want to spend the night, there are unforgettable holiday homes in the region, and a very high level of local pubs and restaurants.

Then you'll see the odd line of cottages sea captain who is known as Stippy-Stappy, then follow the road for a short time before going off left Trevellas Combe. After a clear stream flowed through the woods, you pass through the isolated Jericho Cottage, once owned by renowned Cornish artist John Opie. Near here, we had a scare when a snake glided across the path before us.
You emerge from the valley of the Blue Hills Tin Streams.
