Did you know that walking is not only good for the body and your general fitness but also good for the mind and for the soul? The Japanese are great believers in walking as a balm for life and here on the sunny Isle of Wight we’ve got over 500 miles of paths for you to choose from.
Some of the Island’s paths can be a little on the rugged side so make sure that you’re well prepared with proper footwear for your stomp. There’s so much varied countryside and coast to choose from around the Island that you’ll be spoiled for choice and you can access pretty much every nook and cranny. If it’s fields and forests that you’re after to meander through or rugged chalk downs or the 64 miles of coastal paths which take you to dramatic cliff tops, rocky coves and estuaries, then the Isle of Wight is the perfect walker’s paradise.
Not everyone is happy to just head off with a map in hand and so there are a number of guided walks which will ensure that you see exactly what you want to see. From dinosaurs to fossils, discover why the Isle of Wight is regarded as one of the richest areas for dinosaur discovery in Europe with this guided walk. There are some great places to visit on the Island, each with their very own unique character and heritage. Look out for some of the famous historic monuments such as St Catherine’s Oratory, Tennyson’s Monument and the Mottistone Longstone, all set on stunning rolling hills. Or try the Warrior Trail and learn the story of a real life war horse.
It’s far too easy for us to just jump into the car to go and sightsee but why not leave the car at home for a change to really embrace walking and the countryside. Here on the Island we have a great local bus network and train services which link the ferries and the hovercraft so there’s no excuse!
If you like your walk to be organised with a designated route then come and join in the 2019 Isle of Wight Walking Festival, sponsored by Warner Leisure. With walks for all ages and abilities and with walkers joining from far and near, enjoy the best of what the Island has to offer with stunning scenery, picturesque villages and the chance to walk from the chalky cliffs of the west Wight to the green rolling hills of the east. Whatever countryside or coastal trail or path you’re after, you’ll find it here.
It couldn’t be easier to get to the Isle of Wight by ferry and hovercraft. You can find helpful information on travel to the Isle of Wight, and a range of timetables, links and advice to assist you in getting around the Island once you are here.
