Gunwalloe Coves from the Loe Bar

Five and a half miles south from the Loe Bar over Halzephron Cliff to the church in the sand at Gunwalloe, three hours with 180 metres of climbing and a rather bleak, wrecking coast in any weather. Start from the small National Trust car park behind the Loe Bar, off the Helston to Porthleven road, and return by field paths through Chyvarloe. Stiles are reported fine even for large dogs, and Loe Bar, Dollar Cove and Gunwalloe Fishing Cove all allow dogs all year; Church Cove is the exception in high summer, and the clifftop is unfenced with some sudden drops.
