Off the beaten track in Cornwall: TRANQUIL CORNWALL WALK Durgan and Porth Navas

[@susanbarganier2282]

Beautiful countryside. Sweet doggies. Fun folk. Thank you!

[@jilllovesbeegees70]

Another10! I cant believe how warm Cornwall gets so early in the spring 💐🌼🌺🌞🥀🌸

[@dannybear48393]

Love the doggies! The brown one loves to dig I notice! They’re beautiful! Danny & Mark xx

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

The brown one is always digging!! I think he is a Cornish miner trapped in a dog's body!! Sarah :)

[@nickhall7894]

I’m so glad you’ve reviewed this walk. I now have both Classic Walks Cornwall books and had earmarked this for our visit in August. The ice-cream will help persuade the children that the walk is worthwhile. It looks wonderfully quiet!

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Bribery works wonders with the kids and they will love a little paddle on the beach! Obviously it will be busier around Glendurgan in August! Sarah :)

[@HappyTrailsHiking]

Love that farmhouse and the view! Those hedges are very interesting (and tall). Those grasses were tall too! (It's a theme today) . Amber waves of grain. It is a very tranquil walk. Poor horses. Afternoon tea sounds nice though. Ice Cream! I hope Andrew gets some samples to review. ;-) Great walk! thanks for bring us along! Kay

[@campervancapers6320]

Another lovely walk! Lovely to watch on a miserable Sunday morning!! Nice and quiet, no people.... And frightening Andrew jokes, although the horses 'were' pretty funny!! Finished off with Ice cream on the beach. Perfect....10 out of 10!! 👍😀

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Hi Vicky - some memories of summer! We had some heavy rain and srtong winds today thanks to Storm Freya! Sarah :)

[@campervancapers6320]

@@CornishWalkingTrails We're getting it now! Don't think the fence will last till the morning!! 😱😱( It's as dodgy as Andrew's jokes!!) 😀👍

[@Wolfgang3418]

Hello! A splendid walk near Helford River, thank you for it! The best thing to me was how at 4:05 the wheat masquerades as barley ;-))

[@barbarametzler7534]

As always, thanks for another lovely walk. You seem to truly enjoy your walks so much. I remember long walks before our children, with our children & a bit after they had grown. Oh, all those years I walked unassisted & now I use a walker, forearm crutches & a rollator just to get around. So treasure each day! Appreciate you sharing.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

I will, god willing, be walking for as long as I can! Working in the health sector, I see what people have to cope with and want to appreciate walking while I can, long may it continue!! Sarah :)

I love your walks. We used to go to Cornwall on our family holidays from London. It was magical. Thanks for taking me back.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

You are welcome! We have lots to choose from so probably been to where you used to visit, Sarah :)

As Always, A Wonderful Breath Of Cornish Fresh Air!!!

[@loripadilla669]

What a lovely walk. Andrew with his ice cream . Ice cream sounds good it's going to be about 26.6 C here today. Thanks for sharing another beautiful part of Cornwall.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

The temp sounds good to me - shorts and T-shirt! We are expecting a heavy storm tomorrow, in fact the wind is increasing as I type! Sarah :)

[@CommunityToursAustralia]

Thankyou for another walk with you this is like treasure hunt cool

[@esthermorrissey1454]

This walk is exactly what it says “Tranquil” I would add peaceful and pretty. Enjoyable as usual and the doggies are the real stars.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

£2 all day sounds pretty fair to me and Durgan village and beach looked great to me and very tranquil indeed, especially after tough week in the office. Andrew was on form this week mind lol and I would never have guessed he was 6' 5" lol. Afternoon Cream Tea for two was not badly priced and I think we would have been tempted and a definite 10 out of 10 from us as well, cheers Alan

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Hi Alan, We were tempted and exchanged the look of "Shall we?" but we were too early for the cream tea! Ice cream made up for it though! Sarah :)

[@anthonybelcher8569]

Brilliant video guys

[@Rameman33]

Absolutely gorgeous area.And lovely to see at this time of year,gives you thoughts of what summer has in store.Happy wanders you two.Andy.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

We've had a taste of summer this week - are you braced for the bad weather coming our way this weekend?!? Sarah :)

[@Rameman33]

@@CornishWalkingTrails @Cornish Walking Trails I'll still be out in it Sarah,never bothers me. As Billy Connolly once said "Get yourself a sexy raincoat and get out in it" Kind of agree with him. Tis only wet and strong air :-)

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

I'll be picking up my sexy mac from Trago on the way! Ha! Ha! Sarah :)

[@dianat7764]

You really know how to spoil us! Another amazing walk, and one that we may well try to fit in when we visit Cornwall in September. This part of the county is so picturesque. Definitely a tranquil walk, and an escape from everyday life - thank you.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Hi Diana, This is a new favourite of ours! So close to the busy little beach and Glendurgan yet we hardly saw a sole on the walk! Perfect! Sarah :)

[@RooftopsofAmerica]

Really enjoyed this one! Cheers!

[@judybee]

Another fab walk....your lovely dogs are the stars of the show!.....hope someone from the ice cream place is looking in to grant Andrew's wishes! J x

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Oh Imagine! I think he would be in heaven unless the dogs got there first ... Sarah :)

[@sudsymama]

What a lovely area to walk in. I can't believe its Spring there and you're walking around in short pants and t-shirts. It's cold here. Loved the horse jokes. Gave me a good laugh! Just read a comment and this was filmed last year!

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Gotcha! yeh, one we held back from last summer in case we could not film during the winter months! Sarah :)

[@adventureswithLK]

Thats right. I grow wheat potatoes at my house to. LOL. I started to get a little sea sick watching the wavy wheat field. Oh may gosh, that horse had me cracking up so hard, too funny. Hey.............ice cream👍 Looks like the weather was really nice for you that day. Another really nice walk. Thanks for taking us along.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

HI Lance, Andrew is awaiting a consignment of ice cream in all flavours to dribble through the letter box ,,,,Sarah :)

[@cuccumagic]

Your videos are so lovely that 13 minutes goes very fast ! Thank you and have a good weekend 👍 Ciao

[@kimeagle3743]

Hi Sarah and Andrew just wanted to say thank you for your videos keep up the good work and hopefully I will be able to get and do some of those walks myself one day xxx

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

One of our toughest decisions is which walk to film - we have so many that we want to do! Sarah :)

[@MarksGoneWalking]

Andrews Jokes - just get better 🤔 that fly mask on the Chestnut horse 😂😂😂 perfect walk to start the weekend off. Just sat here had a coffee and 3 scotch pancakes 🥞 inbetween conference calls. Thanks for taking us along Sarah and Andrew. ATB Mark.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Ok, my mouth is now watering! Glad you enjoyed it, Sarah :)

[@TravellingTorunn]

Such a lovely walk :) I must say I was at first astonished by the lovely climate in Cornwall on 1st of March :-) Even the wheat fields were in full swing :-) But then I saw it was filmed in June 2018. Hahahahaha :-) Makes more sense. Thank you for showing this video. All the best. Torunn.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Gotcha! Yes, one we held back from the summer, just in case we were not able to get out! Sarah :)

[@billyb5057]

a really amazing in land walk there today very quiet and peaceful there guys *got our like 👍fully watched🌟supported😁*

[@bettyshort2130]

Thanks Sarah and Andrew for another lovely walk, love the look of Durgan, would love to visit , are there any other facilities here like toilets or a pub always handy to know before you visit what is there, we take a picnic if we are not sure. Such a lovely peaceful walk and I really laughed when I saw the horses little hoods, never seen one with eyes on, so funny. Enjoy your weekend. Bets x

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Durgan has very limited facilities. The cafe is run by the National Trust, offers tea coffee and ice cream, from memory! Andrew thinks there may be toilets but not sure. The nearest pub is in Helford Passage (signposted at 11:18) called the Ferry Boat Inn, not been there for some time, used to be a favourite before we were married! The coastal path is an alternative route to Durgan from there, lovely spot! Sarah :)

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Durgan looks really beautiful, interesting too what you put in the description about being fairly quiet in the summer! And as always useful using a National Trust car park, being members has its benefits 😀👍👍👍

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Especially in Cornwall with so many of the coastal car parks being National Trust property! We definitely get our money's worth, Sarah :)

Hello Sarah and Andrew ! Walk was so peaceful and relaxing , something so wonderful about a breezy,warm summer day completely puts the soul at ease Thank you for this gorgeous video, thank you for all your videos lol,you two are truly a gift ,warm and happy souls indeed 😁 Hope all is well your way and had a nice weekend , I have two sick with influenza A, but they are slowly on the mend ,lots of ice cream and extra treats (and medicine) Sending lots of happiness,Lori p.s. waiting on a snow storm in the next few hours lol March came in like a lion,that’s for sure

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Poor things - plenty of rest and ice cream should do the trick! I have avoided most bugs this winter, fingers crossed but it is rotten to be poorly! Sarah :)

another great walk , love the horse jokes xx

[@DnSAdventures]

Sweet gate leaning pose you got there. I'm a bit jealous. Heck, I just feel relaxed watching and I'm not even there! Nice having the trail to yourselves. :) Hmm, bad time to want to steal a boat. You sure you aren't really in the middle of a warzone? Why else would no one be in that beautiful place with the sounds of planes and helicopters? Ice cream review? Great idea! Thanks for sharing guys! - Shane

Love your comment Shane!! Warzone and ice cream! Take care, Sarah :)

[@jakedeal6508]

Fun walk!

[@Lifeinc]

Looks like a good one folks.

[@anitaford6559]

That was so peaceful looking I could almost feel the breeze. Andrew did it again. 6’5 horses dressed as ghosts lol. Those horse did look funny though. Do you think they did that to keep the flies from worrying them?

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Hi, yeh i think it is meant to keep the flies from bothering them. My Mum uses a blend of Lavender and Citronella essential oils and that seems to reduce the flies, Sarah :)

[@lionelmarytravels6003]

That was barley, not wheat, Sarah. And you a country girl too!

[@steviesgirlbrenwag]

Andrew & Sarah, I have to ask. My husband & I have a disagreement, he thinks that this video must have been originally filmed last year because of the leaves on the trees, the wheat & the warm temp. I belief you did it this year... please set one of us straight... as usual love, love, love your videos... 😊

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Ah, sorry to disappoint you Brenda, but hubby is right! We kept it back in case we couldn't get out during the winter!! It's still quite chilly here at the mo, Sarah :)

[@steviesgirlbrenwag]

Cornish Walking Trails oohh noooooo! He won 😝 I had looked at the weather for your area (I always do, I love Cornwall soooo much) & thought it could be possible?!?! Steve will LOVE hearing this!!! Thank you (I guess?!? 😂) take care! 😽

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Yes 10 out of 10 this one love your walks ....Only one thing !! or maybe two...Only a couple of cornwalneeey jokes , and not a pasty shop in sight !!! any idea why they put a mask on that poor pony ......

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

I think the idea is to keep the flies off! Although there were still lots of flies around the horse! Sarah :)

[@MisterRSG]

As an Australian I have to ask , do you ever encounter poisonous snakes on your walks ? They are everywhere here , its eyes on the ground at all times when going hiking in Australia.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Hi, Yeh, we have one indigenous poisonous snake, the adder. It's favourite habitat is dunes and grassland so its best to stay on paths during spring when they are most active but they scuttle off quickly. Dogs are most at risk from bites when they wonder so we tend to avoid the dunes in spring. Sarah :)

[@randomdave30]

@@CornishWalkingTrails I live right by Gwithian Towans. Once, on one of my rambles, I encountered a HUGE adder, which must've been a pregnant female (obviously!!) as they're the only ones that attack unless provoked. It reared up and made some ugly noises in my direction then shot off into the long grass. I realise they are a protected species and that they're only doing as nature intended - but, all the same..... Disgusting object! Loathesome great worms! Snakes are all neck and tail and are horrible. Apparently if you decapitate an adder the severed head will survive, and can still deliver a bite, for up to an hour after it's been deprived of the rest of itself. What a grisly thought!
