Part of the mineral tramway network above Portreath

An extensive network of old mining tramways has been restored for walking, cycling and horseriding all around the area. This particular section is part of the Portreath Branchline trail, which runs from Portreath (rather obviously) to Brea, just east of Camborne, and follows the route of the former Hayle Railway track.
