Par Sands is a wide sandy expanse of beach with a network of sand dunes behind. The beach is flanked by Cornwall's famous exports. Looking towards the beach and east is a rural idyll whereas looking west is a china clayworks, still in use today.

Polkerris is a secret cove in Cornwall which has a lot to offer. A pub, seafood restaurant, cafe, watersports, clear blue waters and a wooded backdrop. It makes a great place to start or finish a run.

A nice spot on the rocks just down from the SW coastal path. It's a bit of a steep descent and someone's fitted a rope to hold onto, be careful!
