Walks in the St nectans glen area

This walk also starts along the lane through Trenale but this time goes to the very end. The route then descends through pretty woodland into Rocky Valley through slate canyons where it meets the sea. From here it climbs up onto the coast path towards Boscastle. Further along the coast it loops back into the pretty hamlet of Trevalga and across fields to Trethevy. From here it passes St Piran's Chapel and Well and descends into St Nectan's Glen, climbs out of the other side and along the lane back to Trewarmett. For avid geocachers this is another good one - there are up to 9 geocaches within reach of this route.

The walk starts out on the lane past Trenale and then drops down into St Nectan's Glen before climbing the wooded valley alongside the river. From here it crosses some fields and joins a lane leading to Condolden Barrow - the highest point in the area with excellent views. Tracks and footpaths then lead back past the slate quarries of Trebarwith Valley and across Trewarmett Downs.
