World Heritage
Paysage minier des Cornouailles et de l’ouest du Devon
In Cornwall and in the west of Devon, horse riding, machinery houses, ports, canals and mining villages tell of the age of copper and tin. Around Penzance and Lands End, the industrial ruins on the cliffs give the landscape a very special intensity.
Îlot
St Michael's Mount
St Michael's Mount appears in front of Marazion as a tale silhouette, between rocky island, castle and gardens hanging on the relief. The low tide or approach to a boat walk completely changes the experience, which always requires checking the sea schedules.
Cap
Land's End
Land's End applies first of all to this sense of limit, where the cliffs of Cornwall break in the Atlantic. Beyond the famous sign, the coastal trails, the wind and the views to the rocks give the place its true strength.
Bay
Sennen Cove
Sennen Cove softens the approach to Land的s End with its large beach, village picked up and regular waves. It's a good place to walk by the water, watch surfers or wait for a lower light on nearby cliffs.
