Chynhalls-Carn Kennack Cornish coast run
The first full day of our Cornish holiday, so left bright and early to jog down from our cottage at Pednavounder to Trewillis and the Lizard coastline above Chynhalls cliff. I'd explored some of this yesterday, but the morning run along the SW Coast Path was just superb. Tremendous views west from Black Head, then over Pedn Boar to Beagles Hole (supposedly the site of buried pirate treasure - with a very specific legend attached). From here, a very steep up-and-down over Downas Cove led to a series of atmospheric coves, then steep Zawn Vinoc and the peninsula of Carrick Luz. Quicker, flatter running then led to Kennack Sands and over to Carn Kennack, before I located the obscure path that led via a surprisingly tough climb inland to Trevenwith farm and a good bridleway to the hamlet of Ponsongath and back to the cottage.
