We are the Isle of Wight Ramblers. We arrange walks, monitor paths and help our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

This is a 'save-the-date ' entry in the programme. It will be updated nearer the time. I'm not yet entirely sure what our route will be, and it will probably be familiar to many. of you. But basically it will be circular, leisurely and roughly five miles and will doubtless be a highly enjoyable and sociable walking experience, weather permitting. Plus we end up back in Godshill where there is a choice of food/drink venue options if wished.
Meet at the main Old Smithy carpark at 10.30am.
By public transport there are numbers 2 and 3 buses to Godshill.
In the interests of the air, parking, and non-drivers, if anyone is able to offer, or needs, a carshare then please post on WhatsApp group (to join group please message Serena 07564-811690).
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.
