Zennor Zoom
One of the country’s most scenic roads, this route offers stunning Atlantic views, passing meadows, farms, and moors. Stop at Zennor’s historic church, home to the Mermaid of Zennor legend, then enjoy refreshments at Moomaid Café or Tinners Arms. Extend the journey to Gurnard’s Head for a breathtaking moorland loop.
Hayle and Back
An easier ride for regular or electric bikes, with only modest hills. Follow quiet lanes and cycle paths to Hayle, stopping for a pasty at Philps Bakery or extending to Sandy Acres Café on the dunes.
