Connect Yarmouth with Slow Ways
We’re creating a network of walking routes that connect all of Britain’s towns, cities and national parks
more walks and reviews are needed to fully connect Yarmouth to the verified network. Can you give a hike and help?

Slow Ways linking Yarmouth and Cowes, Lymington, Newport (Isle of Wight), Ventnor
England / Isle of Wight / Yarmouth
Yarmouth’s four Slow Ways are 50% checked
Help connect Yarmouth
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of Yarmouth’s Slow Ways.

This has the same problem as Soucow, in that you can't walk across the sea....

It is possible to get a ferry from Lymington to Yarmouth so if it was a walk between Keyhaven and Yarmouth, then it would 100% work, but it’s not so should be deleted....

This route involves a sea crossing and a route where there isn’t even a ferry so you need to sail or privately charter a boat!...
Christine
There were a few occasions where the route was not completely obvious on the ground - such as crossing the fields from Broad Lane - so having a navigation app (Komoot) was helpful in giving me confidence I was heading in the right direction....

Beautiful views but not suitable for wheeling. Surface is also exclusively earth (on clay)...
Rosy Jones
I'd just warn that around Limerstone Down the path can be very tricky to find and follow, so I might recommend (if walking Ventnor to Yarmouth) sticking to the dirt road on the top of the down instead of following the Slow Way down the side of the hill, then using the path labeled Pumpfold Lane or the one directly to its east to get back down off the Down again....
