Overview

Well actually this is a climb up to the Pepper Pot from the viewpoint at Blackgang and then a really lovely walk through the Hermitage and Wydcombe. There is a bit of road walking from Bierley to Niton and then it goes along the Coastal Path back to the viewpoint again. 

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.
