Route description
Starting in Yarmouth, this scenic circular walk follows the River Yar inland along a well-maintained footpath through saltmarshes and meadows, rich in birdlife and wildflowers. The route gently winds towards Freshwater, offering views of rolling countryside and glimpses of the historic Causeway before returning along the opposite side of the river. The path, slightly elevated, provides sweeping views of the estuary and the Solent beyond. This peaceful walk, around 4 miles in total, is mostly flat and suitable for all abilities, making it an ideal way to explore the natural beauty of the island.
