Meet at Wroxall's free car park near St Johns Church on bus route no. 3, for a 7-mile walk in 4 1/2 hours.

Explore Wroxall's hidden past, climb to the top of the downs for wonderful panoramic views of the Island, descend to an ancient wood and ravine populated by wildlife, including red squirrels. Many steps and stiles.

Moderate pace and fairly strenuous. Wear strong walking boots or shoes. The paths may be muddy in places. Bring plenty to drink and a packed lunch. Sorry, no dogs, as very steep in places and sheep grazing.
