Guidebook to 21-day walks on the Isle of Wight, suitable for all abilities, plus a long-distance Coastal Path route. Discover this beautiful, relaxed island off England's south coast, with a variety of walking terrain: dramatic coast paths, rolling downland, marshes, woods, forests and sites of historical interest. Coastal routes can be enjoyed year-round, while inland walks are best between spring and autumn.
The graded day walks range from 8-30km (5-19 miles) and take between 2 and 8 hours to complete. The Coastal Path is a longer, more challenging route that circumnavigates the island in an anti-clockwise direction. It's divided into eight stages, though stronger walkers may prefer to complete it over five, six or seven stages. The full route covers 125km (78 miles).
