Arrive in Penzance and check into your accommodation. Use the rest of your day to explore the local area.

Start the day following the National Cycle Network Route 3 as far as the Merry Maidens stone circle. From this point on you'll be using the provided route to twist and turn your way along coastal paths towards Lands End. This section has some steep climbs but equally steep descents to enjoy. Take in the views from Lands End, the iconic finish point of the LEJOG cycle route. 

The next part of the route heads along the coast to Cape Cornwall before heading inland and then out again towards the incredible views over Kenidjack Castle. Passing along a string of engine houses on the cliffs it's then inland past hill forts and across remote moors. Soon after you'll arrive in St Erth where you can check in to your accommodation and enjoy the evening.  

Day three begins by heading down into a roller coaster of small stream valleys before meeting the stone cottage hamlet of Relubbus. You'll then follow crystal clear waters upstream before starting the climbs of the day. Once at the top of Godolphin Hill you'll get the reward of views out towards Penzance Mounts Bay. It was here, during Victorian mining that Bronze Age Axes and prehistoric villages were uncovered. For even better views you may want to take a walk to the very top of the hill before heading off.  

It's then on wards to Porthleven, the most southerly port in the UK before heading for the most southerly peninsula at Lizard point. Along this section enjoy the spectacular coastal views. You'll pass by Predannack Airfield, a WWII RAF satellite airfield built when France fell to Germany. 

The final stretch to Coverack takes you back in time to a quiet part of Cornwall, through ancient lanes and into the natural harbour where you'll spend the night.  

Get ready for plenty of hills today as you set off inland through ancient sites. If you want to avoid some of the hills then there is an option to take a small foot and cycle ferry from Helford, across the river. This is weather dependent but we'll give you all the details you need in the adventure pack.  

If you choose to take the road then why not stop off at Gweek Seal Sanctury? It's been saving seal pups for over 60 years and make s a good stop before more hills approach. 

Following on from this you'll head towards the mining centre of Cornwall, along a mixture of bridleways and roads. Along the way there's also Fogou's to explore, underground stone passages dating back to the Iron Age. Today ends when you reach Portreath, meaning 'sandy cove', it's beach paradise popular with surfers and birdwatchers. 

The final day of cycling follows much of the mining trail as the route cuts back from north to south. It's straight into a steep climb, followed shortly after by another through woodland up to the Feadon Wildlife park. You'll briefly head on to The Great Flat Lode Trail with Carn Brea on your right. There's an option to take the climb up to the summit where you'll get panoramic views out beyond St Ives.  

There's still plenty of climbs left however the scenery will change as you head closer to the coast where St Micheal's Mount will start to come in to view. The route officially ends at Marazion and there's plenty of time to give your legs a rest and explore the area before taking a quiet road back along the coast to Penzance.  

One last morning to take a stroll along the coast and explore before heading home.
