Carbis Bay to St Ives
People have lived and worked here since Stone Age times, and there are relics and stories of the past, including prehistoric field systems, a Celtic saint's medieval chapel and a fishermen's lookout hut, as well as shipwrecks, railways, mining and a twentieth-century novelist. The walk travels on good paths and there is no more than a little gentle ascent and descent.

West Cornwall Golf Club
West Cornwall Golf Club is located a stones throw from Carbis Bay Estate, in the neighbouring village of Lelant. The 18 hole club is the oldest in Cornwall, founded in 1889 and is perched above the sand dunes of Porthkidney Beach. The views across St Ives Bay and the Hayle Estuary are breathtaking. Notable players include 'Long' Jim Barnes, 4-time major winner and in more recent times Walker Cup players, Philip Rowe (1999) and Harry Hall (2019).
