We are the Isle of Wight Ramblers. We arrange walks, monitor paths and help our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Starting at Fort Victoria, where there are is a cafe, toilets and free parking, this is a beautiful walk. There will be a break for a snack and a drink (which you will need to bring). We will keep an eye out for Little Egrets and possible Spoonbills and Red Squirrels. Please note that it may be muddy on the West side of the Yar. There is only one busy road to cross and if the bridge At Yarmouth is still closed, it will be nice and quiet.
New walkers welcome. If you are new to the Ramblers you can just turn up for any of our walks, unless we specify otherwise. We invite you to come along for three walks as a non-member.
