Kilminorth Woods
From Looe, past the ancient Giants Hedge
The walk winds into the mature broadleaf woodland of Kilminorth Woods by following the Giant's Hedge, built in the Dark Ages before a woodland existed here. The walk descends to the riverbank and then follows the West Looe river down to its confluence beside the pool that powered Looe's mills. The route follows the river to the bridge and crosses this to East Looe, continuing all the way along the quay to where the river meets the sea at the Banjo Pier. After passing along the beach, the walk winds through the mediaeval alleyways past some of Looe's oldest buildings before returning to the car park.
