Route Outline
Fowey has to be one of the most beautiful towns in Engalnd. It sits on the West bank of the River Fowey overlooking the natural harbour formed by the river and the Polruan Headland. Nowadays the harbour is mainly used by pleasure craft although large commercial ships still travel upriver to load cargoes of china clay. The local countryside is typical of south Cornwall. The hills are not as high as the north of the county and the coastline is less rugged.
