Day: 92 31/5/93 Helford Passage to Falmouth

 Weather: Fine
Distance: 15 km (9.3 miles)    Total Distance:   1212 miles

Margaret dropped me at the road junction by Trebah Farm and I strolled down to Helford River.  It was good to get back to the coast again and the weather was a lot better today.  The view out to the river was of oyster beds and small craft whilst inland the path passed at the foot of private and National Trust gardens.

I stopped at a cafe at Maenporth.  The beach was starting to get busy. It was not long then until I entered the outskirts of Falmouth.  The front was starting to get crowded with tourists.  I walked around the outskirts of Pendennis Castle but not into it.  We had visited the castle itself a number of years previously. 

The town side of this route was a little more tricky to find and went through a railway siding inland from the docks.  There was a couple of sizeable craft being worked on in the boatyards.
