The Hall Walk, within yards of April Cottage, is a famous four-mile circular route, following the river via Pont Creek and round to Polruan. It involves taking two ferries. The walk is very ‘up and down’ and considered a moderate grade walk for this reason. However, there are many opportunities to stop and enjoy the countryside and riverside views.
