Our drawing of the route, over road and path data from OpenStreetMap. It shows where the walk goes and what it goes through. It is not a survey and not a navigation aid — carry OS Explorer on the hill. Off-lead information here is what walkers reported or what signage allows — never our advice. Whether and when a dog is off the lead is the owner’s decision and legal responsibility; keep dogs under control near livestock and follow signs on the day.

Starts at
Coverack car park, above the village on the Helston road
Parking
Pay-and-display above Coverack, moderate size; the harbour front has almost no parking and is exposed to easterly weather
Directions to the start →

Five and three quarter miles north from Coverack over the raised beach at Lowland Point and back through St Keverne, three hours with 210 metres of climbing on some of the strangest geology in Britain. Park in the car park above Coverack, since the harbour road is narrow and tidal in a gale, and expect the Manacles reef offshore for most of the outward leg. Most stiles are manageable and Coverack and Godrevy Cove take dogs all year, but ponies graze near Lowland Point, one stile by Dean Quarry is best bypassed along the beach top, and a very large dog will need help at the Godrevy footbridge.

THE SMALL PRINTPonies graze the coast near Lowland Point. One stile near Dean Quarry is awkward and best bypassed round the end of the wall, and very large dogs need help at the Godrevy Cove footbridge. Coverack and Godrevy Cove are open to dogs all year.
