Summary

edit
Description
English: The Saints' Way 1 Looking west from the B3269; the Saints' Way Trail crosses mid-Cornwall from Padstow to Fowey covering 30 miles / 48 Km.

Although there is no historical evidence of a 'Saints' Way', sections of the trail are known ancient routes connecting shrines, standing stones, holy wells, chapels and churches. Linked together, the trail forms a fairly direct cross-county path which may have been used by Christian missionaries and pilgrims in the Dark and Middle Ages. The Saints' Way was also known as the Mariners' Way and used by traders from Ireland and Wales who wanted to avoid the dangerous waters around Lands End.

Granite steps are provided but not needed if the gate is kept open.
