Nestled in the landscape of the Isle of Wight, the Stenbury Trail offers a walking experience for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike. Stretching approximately 10 miles (16 km), it runs from Newport in the north to Ventnor on the south coast.

The walk follows bridleways along the river valley before rising up and over Appuldurcombe, Stenbury and Week Downs, with fine views to both north and south, then descends to the botanic gardens at Ventnor. On the way you pass through woodlands, rolling hills and farmland, and Stenbury Down offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and the distant sea.

Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or a casual walker, the Stenbury Trail is a good way to enjoy the natural beauty and heritage of the island. The paths are well marked and the terrain varies along the way. LDWA grades it Easy.
