Stenbury Trail

Leaving Newport, this 10 mile walk initially follows the River Medina valley through some delightful countryside. You’ll pass close to Godshill, so take a short detour to see the thatched cottages of one of the Island’s prettiest villages, and a little later another one to Appuldurcombe House. The walk continues up and over Week Down offering superb sea views before descending to the sub-tropical Botanic Garden at Ventnor.
