Walks in the Port isaac area

The walk starts at Port Gaverne beach passing the Port Gaverne Hotel where there are a number of old pictures of Port Gaverne and Port Isaac a century ago. The walk follows the valley into woodland and climbs out through farmland to the top of the hill where there are excellent views over the valley. The route then descends into the neighbouring valley and follows it down to Port Isaac leading to the Harbour and back through the village to the cliffs overlooking Port Gaverne before descending back to the beach.

The walk runs down the valley from Middle Hendra and climbs onto the headland above Barrett's Zawn. There is tunnel to the beach through which slate used to be hauled - it's possible to crawl through to the beach though not it's recommended for the feint-hearted or without a torch. You can also get down onto the rock platform at Delabole Point (without any tunnels).
