An easy, level ride on a traffic-free cycle route

the Barley Mow pub. This is a right turn off St George’s Way, as you are

From Newport:
Follow the track, going straight on at any road crossings until you reach
Sandown station – it’s as simple as that!
From Sandown:
Go out of the car park entrance and turn right down the track and right
again under the subway.
Turn right along Perowne Way until you reach the shop on your
right.
Turn left to join the cycleway and follow the track, going
straight on at any road crossings until you reach Newport.
Refreshments:

Newport and Sandown are major towns so have plenty of shops,
cafes and pubs.

is right next to the Newport end of the cycleway and serves food.

The Pointers Inn in
Newchurch is a short (uphill) diversion from this route and serves food.
