Day 5, 28th September.
A beautiful day with no wind and sunshine nearly all day. Being a Saturday as well meant there were loads of walkers about, especially near the car parks.
 |
| Fowey harbour |
Through Polruan which looks like an even more expensive version of Fowey (pronounced 'Foy') and onto the cliffs again for more ups and downs.
 |
| Looking to Pencarro Head |
The cliffs and the sunshine kept going all day taking me through Polperro and Telland before dumping me in Looe.
 |
| Polperro |
 |
| Sea Shanties in the street, Polperro. |
Loo(e) is appropriately named, it was full of tourists and the shops to service them. The only good thing was a branch of Boots where I bought some ear plugs ready for a noisy, windy night in the tent.
 |
| Approaching Looe, luckily you can't see it. |
To be fair the harbour is pretty it's just the mass of tourists and tat in the town that's the problem.
 |
| Looe harbour |
Minor roads and tracks round the cliffs past some valuable houses to Downderry where the restaurant and the pub were both fully booked. I had looked in as I thought of going to the campsite before heading back for dinner. Luckily the tapas restaurant managed to feed me then before all the bookings started.

| A rather exposed campsite |
17 miles 1300 meters ascent
