We've grouped together the walks that visit Tintagel Castle so you can visit the castle as part of a circular walk and enjoy views of it along the coast (which are excellent in both directions).

From Tintagel Visitor's centre, you can visit Tintagel Castle on either the short circular walk which includes St Materiana Church or the slightly longer circular walk which includes the headlands of Barras Nose and Willpark (which both have excellent views of the Castle) and the sandy beach at Bossiney Haven.

For a slightly longer walk, you can start either at Trebarwith Strand and do a circular walk from Trebarwith Strand to Tintagel Castle, or take the bus from Tintagel Visitor's centre to Boscastle and do the one-way walk along the coast path from Boscastle to Tintagel Castle.
