    Hiking

    Bembridge Fort is a historic fortification dating back to the 19th century and located on the eastern side of the Isle of Wight.

    The fort played a vital defence role during both WW1 and WW2, and the public are invited in to explore the many underground tunnels and artillery positions that were so important during its use. It's a must-see for any history buffs visiting the island.

    Its elevated position also provides some sensational views across the surrounding countryside.
