ヴェントナーの絶景の山頂・トップ4

The climb is a bit steep, but the views are expansive, over land and sea. Don't be afraid, just respect the cows, goats, and dogs. Today they were all friendly and well-disposed.

I love running this track with my dogs—it's peaceful, and the views are absolutely breathtaking.

Ventnor Downs is the group of downs above Ventor which includes St Boniface Down where you can find the highest point on the Isle of Wight. There is a lot of free parking spaces up here and incredible views over the coast so a run around this area is fully recommended.

It's high, but it's worth the climb. On a good day you can see all the way to the Isle of Portland to the west and even to France to the south. St Boniface Down is home to the highest point on the Isle of Wight. The trig point, just north of here stands at 241m.

Arguably one of the best views on the Isle of Wight, from Shanklin Down you can see all the way out to the Nab Tower lighthouse in the east, out to the Needles Headland in the west and even over the Solent to the mainland.

The unmade section of road (beyond the radar station) is now closed to motor vehicles. There are still plenty of free parking areas along the road up to that point.

Adjacent to the highest point on the Island (St Boniface Down), this free car park is an excellent place to start a walk or ride for some big views across the Island and beyond. But be warned: the access road is very steep and the final section is unmade, with some rather sizeable undulations.

Great Views across Shanklin and Sandown Bay to Culver Cliff in the distance
