A 6 mile circular route around historic slate quarries which have now been reclaimed by Nature to the ancient quarry at Delabole which was the largest man-made hole in Europe for many years and is still worked, returning via the restored engine house overlooking Trebarwith Valley.
The route starts at Jeffrey's Pit in Trebarwith Valley and climbs through the woods and fields to Jenkins Quarry. It then follows a cattle-droving track into Delabole, passing the quarrymens' cottages along Pengelly, until it reaches Delabole Quarry. The route skirts around the edge of the quarry and then heads back down Bowithick Hill. It passes through the Bowithick Quarry slate tips to the Prince of Wales Quarry before completing the circle, returning along Sanding Road to Jeffery's Pit.
Highlights:
- Pretty wooded valley at Jeffrey's Pit
- Delabole slate quarry - once the biggest man-made pit in the world
- Panoramic views over Trewarmett Downs, Trebarwith Valley and Port Isaac Bay
- Wildflowers covering the slate tips in spring and early summer

- Variety of wildlife such as buzzards, kestrels, badgers and stoats
