Walking on Guernsey

This guide describes 25 walks on the Channel Islands of Guernsey, Alderney, Sark and Herm. From easy 3-mile routes to the 38-mile Guernsey Coastal Walk, it explores the islands' outstanding landscapes and historic sites via mostly firm and well-surfaced paths and tracks, and quiet roads. Never straying far from the many attractions and cafes that dot the islands, more rugged paths are occasionally used to access cliffs, headlands and rocky promontories.

Famous for its sunshine, history and wonderful coastline, Guernsey is a popular destination for travellers, boasting superb year-round walking no further than 2 miles from the sea. This guidebook presents a range of mostly circular routes exploring the Guernsey coast and interior, and the smaller islands of Alderney, Sark and Herm. Neighbouring walks can easily be combined into longer routes for walkers with more time or fitness.

The routes feature highly detailed 1:15,000 scale States of Guernsey maps, while flora and fauna and the fascinating history of the islands are also covered. Details are included of how to travel between the islands, as well as connecting with the 113-mile Channel Island Way.
