Fullscreen map

The walk follows the stream up from Jeffrey's Pit through bluebell woods emerging at the top of Trebarwith Valley overlooking Trewarmett. The route follows the ridge seawards then descends into the valley with panoramic views back up to Trewarmett and down to the sea. The walk continues down to the valley floor past an old mill and then back up the other side of the valley through Trebarwith Nature Reserve to the fields in Treknow from which there are more views across the valley in the other direction.

Highlights

Pretty wooded valley at Jeffrey's Pit with nice bluebells, celandines and primroses
Panoramic views of Trebarwith Valley and Trewarmett Downs
Cascading stream and broadleaf woodland along the floor of Trebarwith Valley, including the Trebarwith Nature Reserve with nice bluebells.
Lots of wildlife and wildflowers

Dogs

Dogs are likely to need help over the stile at the bottom of the valley below Fentafriddle and the top of the Trebarwith Nature Reserve. The next stile (onto the Treknow lane) can be bypassed via the gates.

The walk is available through the iWalk Cornwall app for Apple and Android for £3.29 which each include everything listed here.
