Inhaltsangabe

Fully revised second edition of the second of Trailblazer's 10-title series of British Walking Guides. The Cornwall Coast Path is a 203-mile section of a National Trail around the south-western tip of Britain, with some of the best coastal walking in Europe. With constantly changing scenery, the footpath takes in secluded coves, tiny fishing villages, rocky headlands, bustling resorts, wooded estuaries and golden surf-washed beaches. It is an area rich in wildlife with seabirds, wild flowers, dolphins and seals. For this second edition we have extended coverage by 43 miles so that the trail information in the book begins from Bude rather than Padstow and now includes Tintagel.

· 13 town plans and 99 large-scale walking maps – at just under 1:20,000 – showing route times, places to stay, places to eat, points of interest and much more. These are not general-purpose maps but fully-edited maps drawn by walkers for walkers.
·
· Itineraries for all walkers – whether walking the route in its entirety over 17-21 days or sampling the highlights on day walks and short breaks
·
· Practical information for all budgets – camping, bunkhouses, hostels, B&Bs, pubs and hotels; Bude through to Falmouth – where to stay, where to eat, what to see, plus detailed street plans
·
· Comprehensive public transport information – for all access points on the coast path
·
· Flora and fauna – four page full color flower guide, plus an illustrated section on local wildlife
·
· Green hiking – understanding the local environment and minimizing our impact on it
