Trek Options:
Classic Two-Day Trek with Camping
Your two day adventure starts on Saturday morning at Padstow Church, where you will embark upon the first leg of your journey. As you leave Padstow you will be treated to spectacular views back across the famous harbour town, before making your way towards St. Breock and the ancient monolithic landmark on the downs.
The first day of trekking ends at the 16.5 mile mark, where we will set up camp at Mena Farm Campsite with it’s idyllic wild meadows. With it being the summer solstice we are guaranteed a beautiful evening around the fire pit.
Sunday morning takes you to the windswept heights of Helman Tor, where you can view the north and south coasts of our beautiful county. As you head down towards Golant, the banks of the river Fowey will lead you to the finish of the iconic Saint’s Way at Readymoney Cove in Fowey, where a medal will be waiting for you!
One-Day Through Trek
For the first time ever, we are offering The Saints Way Trek as a 1 day through-trek ultra challenge!
You’ll start bright and early on Saturday morning at Padstow Church where you will begin your 30 mile adventure. You will enjoy stunning coastal views as you make your way towards the historic site of St Breock. From there you will journey towards Withiel, on to Lanivet, and up to the vistas of Helman Tor which showcase views of both south and north coasts.
The lovely creek-side village of Golant will be your next stop with Fowey River leading you to your final destination of Readymoney Cove in beautiful Fowey where you will receive your well earned medal and finally rest those feet! What a way to celebrate the summer solstice.
Saint’s Way Half
If you don’t fancy the full 30 miles, then why not take on The Saint’s Way Half and walk the second part of the ancient 13.5 mile route.
Start your journey on Sunday morning in the lovely village of Lanivet and make your way towards rugged Helman Tor with it’s windswept heights. The next part of your challenge takes you past rolling farmland and on towards the idyllic village of Golant where you meet the River Fowey and journey through ancient woods and secluded valleys ending in Fowey where your medal and a warm welcome will be found at Readymoney Cove.
