This trail makes a circuit around the base of Carn Brea, and explores the greatest multitude of historic mine buildings found anywhere else in the world. A surprising wealth of wildlife and flora can be seen around the inhospitable area's mine sites. Care should be taken as the trail is also used by walkers and horse-riders.
