A gentle trail from the popular tourist destination of Padstow, past the War Memorial and out along the South West Coast Path to Gun Point where remnants of Napoleonic fortifications can be seen. The route follows the Camel Estuary giving views over Daymer Bay, Pentire Point and back along the Estuary towards Wadebridge. The surface is tarmacadam until St George's Cove and then mixed stones until Gun Point. There are a couple of gentle gradients - up to the War Memorial and passing St George's Cove. Wheelchairs, pushchairs and trampers will enjoy the terrain. You can turn around and come back at any point. An alternative route back into Padstow past the War Memorial descends on roads back to the harbour streets.
