Fowey Hall Walk

This popular circular walk in Fowey involves two ferry crossings and lovely waterside sections along Pont Pill and Fowey Quay. Along the way you’ll enjoy wonderful views over Fowey Harbour, the River Fowey and the south coast. There’s also pretty little quays, Cornish villages and splendid pubs for refreshments.
The walk starts in Fowey, at the Fowey to Bodinnick Ferry. After catching the ferry to Bodinnick you pick up the footpath and head south to the ‘Q’ memorial. The route then runs east along the green waters of the tidal river of Pont Pill to the pretty hamlet of Pont. Here you cross a footbridge to the southern side of Pont Pill and head west to Polruan. At Polruan you catch the ferry back to Fowey and finish the walk with a stroll along the quay.
To extend your walking in the area you could follow the coast path east and try the popular Looe to Polperro Walk. The walk takes in Talland Bay, the Looe Estuary and Hannafore with great views to Looe Island.
You could also head in the other direction on the Fowey to Polkerris Walk. The circular walk visits the National Trust’s Gribbin Head and the pretty beach and harbour at the village of Polkerris. The long distance Saints Way also passes through Fowey. If you follow it north on the Fowey to Golant Walk you can enjoy views of the river and the noteworthy Sawmills Studio.
