Walking the Isle of Wight
The Isle of Wight is a walker’s paradise, filled with over 500 miles of footpaths across contrasting landscapes and beaches, making it the ideal place for a walking holiday or break.
With a great range of walking routes it is possible to access almost every nook and cranny of the Island on foot, including many of our interesting towns and villages and can take you from a gentle meander along rural tree lined paths to longer challenging hikes over open fields and chalk downs.
The Isle of Wight Coastal Path can be split into six sections and takes you around the whole circumference of the Island. You’ll pass through busy harbours in sailing towns, sandy seafronts on award-winning beaches and wildlife havens at serene nature reserves.
