The coastal footpath between St. Ives and Zennor is a 6 mile long roller coaster of a walk. It traces along the cliffs giving a view of the rocky bays below with a perfect picnic stop at Seal Island - where you'll see a large colony of seals. Also look out for the (rare) pairs of
Cornish Choughs
, with their distinctive call.
You can approach this walk from Zennor to St. Ives or from St. Ives to Zennor. You'll need transportation arranged in either case. There's a bus that runs between St. Ives and Zennor - and you can either take the
bus
to Zennor and start there, or get the bus back from Zennor if you are starting in St. Ives. The bus costs about 4 pounds for an adult single fare. Starting at the Zennor end, alight the bus and head to Zennor Church for the start of the trail. The trail in St. Ives starts (or ends) above Porthmeor beach - by the town Bowling Green, heading to Man's Head.
Depending on conditions and fitness, the walk could take 3-5 hours - an average walker with a couple of rest stops taking about 4 hours. The undulating walk is steep in parts - making it a little strenuous. You must have appropriate walking shoes or boots. I'd recommend bringing a backpack for your supplies, with waterproofs if the weather forecast looks ominous. There's no real way of exiting the path once you're on it. If you happen to have walking poles, you could be grateful for them on a couple of slopes, but they're definitely not necessary.
At the Zennor end of the walk, you'll find a very welcoming pub -
The Tinners Arms
, serving drinks, food and snacks, while at the St. Ives end there are endless cafés and eateries - but in the middle you're on your own. Bring plenty of water (I'd recommend at least 1-2 litres per person), a picnic and/or snacks.

About the author
As the founder of MapADay, I recognise the value of really useful online travel guides - written by fellow travellers. I founded MapADay to create a platform where anybody could share and promote their favourite travel itineraries - in a consistent format that travellers can easily follow. I also hope tour guides, operators, travel photographers and travel bloggers will promote their material on MapADay. I've lived in 5 different countries: UK, France, USA, Canada and now Denmark, and love exploring new places with my family - near and far.
