Day 3 - Padstow to Lanivet - The Saints Way

15 miles moderate grade walking - What this grade means

Follow in the footsteps of the ancient Saints, who crossed from Padstow to Fowey en-route to pilgrimage sites in Europe. Today you wander out of Padstow following stunning Little Petherick creek as it leaves the Camel Estuary, before climbing to the semi moorland of St Breock Down, capped with its Menhir -  the oldest standing stone in Cornwall. In the afternoon cross the remote and hidden valley below Withiel, before following inland pasture and back lanes to the accommodating inland village of Lanivet with its well-placed pub facilities.
