Memory Lanes 

 

Duration: 3 hours   Meeting Point: St.Martin’s Parish Hall   Bus: 23 out, Bus 3A back

Difficulty: Medium   Distance: 5 Miles (8.1 kilometres)     

 

 

Join me in my home parish of St.Martin. Drawing on memories of almost a lifetime living in the parish, this circular walk will inform and entertain. We will stroll through country lanes and woodland, and possibly do a little beach walking as well.

Mix history and culture with parochial life and the result is an intimate, warm and colourful view of Jersey. 

 

Stout footwear with a grippy sole is advisable.

Almost Downhill all the Way

a cross island walk from the north coast to the south coast 

 Duration: 6 hours   Meeting Point: Bonne Nuit Bay slipway   Bus: 4

Difficulty: Hard   Distance: 6 Miles (10 kilometres) 

 

After an initial climb to the heights of La Tete de Fremont, we follow a stream that rises in St.John, and trace its course as it flows south towards the sea. We walk past the first reservoirs built in Jersey, including Handois Reservoir, which is usually closed to the public. Learn about the island's watermills, the German Occupation and ghostly apparitions as we walk along the shady Millenium Path that runs through some of the prettiest scenery in Jersey. The walk finishes at the Old station Cafe in St.Aubin's Bay.
