Sennen to Botallack

Another dazzling day for a coastal walk last Saturday. This path from Sennen to Botallack runs almost at sea level for much of the way - before alpine climbs in and out of long deserted mining valleys. We spotted five Cornish choughs on the cliffs near Botallack, a first for me.

Does anyone have the energy to walk the Cornish coastal footpath day after day? It's exhausting, and anyway far too stunning to hurry.

Last Thursday's glorious sunshine was the perfect weather. Yes, the colours really were this bright. Even the hydrangeas in the Ladies back at the Queen's Arms, Botallack, at the end.
