North Cornwall Day 7 - St Ives to St Just
St Ives, Cape Cornwall & St Just
After the relatively easy day yesterday - this one was a real brute ! It was some of the hardest walking we had ever encountered - the path around Port Isaac was tough, but I think this was harder. As we included Cape Cornwall in this leg before swinging back round to St Just, we really did push it. The leg was however one of the most stunning, the path hugs the contours of the coastline, sending you on an endless series of ups and downs. The wildlife was fascinating with seals and although we didn't see any basking sharks apparently they are often spotted. We did see a bird of prey scoop up an adder and land in front of us - it stared at us for a while, whilst getting a better grip on its meal, and then off it flew.
