We are the Isle of Wight Ramblers. We arrange walks, monitor paths and help our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
This walk starts in the shadow of Carisbrooke Castle and winds alongside Lukely Brook. We will then ascend to the lovely Dukem Down for a picnic lunch with plenty of time to soak in the stunning views. Homeward bound, we will descend to Little Gatcombe and walk along the historic Shepherds Trail.
Food
Packed lunch.
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.
Additional Notes
Depending on the weather, consider suitable, clothing, footwear, walking poles, sun cream, drinks, and food. Watch out for ticks and remove ASAP. If you are unsure about your ability to undertake this walk, please contact the walks leader. If you need to leave the walking group, please ensure you inform the leader or back marker.
Wise to look at the website on the day just in case of any changes or additional info. And in the event of extreme weather please check back for cancellation notices.
Carisbrooke Priory car park. **Please note the following** On Friday WightFibre were working on Castle Hill and there was no access approaching from Cedar Hill. Who knows where they will be next Tuesday, so best to leave a little extra time and be prepared for a detour.
