Walking Back To Happiness - The Coastal Path from St. Ives, Cornwall to Hayle, Cornwall

And so we finish with a gentle amble (it's a lot quicker and less effort than walking along Porth Kidney) back along the actual coast path.

The path is not difficult to spot and should look something like this.
If it starts resembling either a train track or a golf course you have wandered too far inland.

If you are walking from the Hayle end the path starts out over the back of the sand dunes and gradually rises.

Just like that.

Warning. If you are walking from St. Ives and are seeing these sort of vistas please note that you are walking backwards and should seek immediate therapy.

The path continues to rise (with the occasional dip) towards the dizzy heights of Hawk's Point. Be warned the last bit is rather steep.

	You're soon quite high above Porth Kidney ...		... unless, of course, you fall off.
	There are some lovely little leafy tunnels ...		... and always the temptations of St. Ives on the horizon to urge you on.
