Cornwall Walking Padstow Hiking The Camel Trail was about 12 miles in distance and undertaken in May 2011. Myself and my partner Anne did this hike whilst on a Cornwall hiking holiday. We drove from our holiday accommodation in St Teath to the starting location of Padstow harbour pay and display car park.
On this hike we went past the National Lobster Hatchery in Padstow Harbour and followed a section of the Camel Trail, which is also a cycle path beside the River Camel. We hiked a few miles along a cycle path beside the river: crossing a large metal bridge; passing a picnic area and several creeks; through a disused slate tip and under a bridge. We also had a few joggers pass us and several cyclists.
We then crossed country along several quiet tree lined country lanes through some pretty little hamlets. To complete the hike we crossed rolling pastures; passed through quiet woodlands and went over Dennis Hill back to Padstow, with super views to the river and bay beyond. The later part of the hike was actually along The Saints' Way which is an ancient coast-to-coast route across the county.
