The Jericho Valley and Blue Hills walk takes in the wonderful location near Trevellas Cove, St Agnes, with its pretty stream curving its way through a wooded valley and down to the sea.
You can uncover the area's tin mining past with iconic engine houses or even become detective and uncover the mysterious tale of the Dog King!
Waterscapes and nature-based photographic opportunities abound. It's a chance to look back from the shoreline and head inland to connect with the stream, the flora, trees and wildlife.
The walk meets at the Wheal Kitty car park. You will need to walk down a steep hill to either head left to the sea side area of the walk where you can look back towards Blue Hills from Trevellas Cove, or turn right past the now closed Blue Hills Tin Mine shop to follow the path through the valley towards Barkla Shop.
If you don't fancy the walk down the hill, you can drive and park at the small car park overlooking the cove, but please note the roads are narrow and can be bumpy in parts. The car parks are free at time of writing.
Please wear sensible walking boots/shoes and clothing for October weather. The footpaths are uneven so please take your time.
