Walkaboutwest was created in 1999 to offer guided walks to visitors to south east Cornwall. It is run by Mark Camp, a qualified Blue Badge Guide, who has lived in the Looe area for over 30 years.Since he was old enough to be allowed out on his own Mark has been exploring the countryside around his home town of Looe. The coastline, both to the east and west of the town offers wonderful walks with sea views hard to beat. Along the way paths lead down to hidden coves, if you know where to find them, and inland the two Looe rivers snake between wooded hills and meadows rich in flora. Further afield Mark has developed a love for the rugged parts of Cornwall, the high moors. With their prehistoric standing stones and 19th century mining remains, they are an area of great interest. Less than half an hour’s drive from Looe's crowded streets you can be on the open moor with just the song of a skylark for company.Mark is a member of Looe Old Cornwall Society, Cornwall Association of Local Historians and Cornwall Archaeological Society. WALKABOUTWEST can offer guided walks, talks or coach commentaries to most areas of Cornwall and west Devon. |
