Explore Men-an-Tol and its Surroundings

Start on the moors outside Penzance at this ancient monument for views of all three coasts. In olden days children with rickets were passed naked through the stones to be cured. Make your way to the Merry Maidens stone circle and then Ding Dong Mine engine house.

Penzance (3.7 miles)
Not quite as firmly on the tourist trail as St Ives, Penzance has real character and is more down to earth. The Jubilee Pool, on the Promenade, is an enormous open-air, Art Deco-style lido, complete with sun terraces and cafe - it’s a great place to while away a sunny afternoon.
