Shanklin Chine
« Back to all attractions in Outdoors
Moving further south, this world famous gorge is entered from Shanklin Old Village. Dropping 105 ft from the top of the cliff to sea level, Shanklin Chine is a natural fissure in the cliff, formed by water cutting through sandstone to the sea.
The chine walk leads through a deeply shaded path winding down beside waterfalls to the shore and along the way there are more than 150 varieties of wild plants and many species of moss to discover.
This is an attraction that caters for children as well. They are given a well-thought out routing plan, encouraging them to find signs along the way, which point out some of the most interesting rare plants and other points of interest.
