Hayle to St Ives

Consignes de sécurité
Please take care while walking along the coastal path as some sections can be narrow and may have exposed cliff-edge walking. If any erosion has taken place a diversion will have been put in place so please follow these diversion details and signs where necessary.
A brief section along the B3301, take extra care here.
Guidebook/ Map
If you wish to carry a hardcopy map, you can print off the daily maps directly from our app. However, if you wish to look at a map, we would recommend purchasing the guidebook Trailblazer's Cornwall Coast Path: SW Coast Path Part 2 - Bude to Plymouth by Henry Stedman & Joel Newton - this has daily maps with added information and guidance on the trial and the surrounding area.

This 6-mile stretch leaves Hayle along the busy Carnsew Road and The Causeway crossing to the other side of the estuary. It’s a delightful (if noisy) excursion in a stunning seascape.
The path leaves the busy roads behind and briefly, follows the B3301 going beneath the branch line between St Erth and St Ives. From here the route follows The Saltings, a quiet suburban walk through the outskirts of Lelant.
From St Uny Church, the coast path follows the railway line into St Ives, firstly through more dunes then past Carbis Bay. The path beyond Carbis Bay winds its way through wooded cliffs to arrive at the broad sands of Porthminster Beach and onto the town of St Ives for your overnight stay.
*** This is the end of our Hayle to St Ives route and the end of our Padstow to St. Ives walking tour. Please use your included documentation to find your overnight accommodation. For those walking multiple sections of the SWCP you may be walking onward to overnight in Zennor - Please move onto the next route in the Macs App which is St Ives to Zennor ***

S'équiper
Sturdy hiking boots, layered clothing items and a waterproof/wind-break layer may all be required. The weather in the south is usually better than the rest of the UK and temperatures can sore, especially in the summer months. Make sure to check the weather before you go to see if you need suncream or a waterproof layer, as the weather can change quickly.
Ensure your phone is fully charged; if you doubt the battery will last throughout the hike, it could be beneficial to bring a power bank.
Take plenty of water for the days walk - especially if a high temperature in the summer.
