Story

Hike the entire coastline of the Isle of Wight virtually from 1st July!

Bringing you the second in our popular Virtual Hike series: Isle of Wight Coastal Path. Decided by our supporters, the challenge is to walk the equivalent distance to the entire length of the islands stunning coastline (70 miles) from, or near to, your own home throughout July.

As you circumnavigate the island, you'll visit royal estates, golden sandy beaches, towering coastal cliffs and the sites of historic battles. Hiking from East Cowes around the clock to Cowes is a truly memorable experience and were giving you the chance, wherever you are, to take on this virtual version of the challenge without the travel expenses! Over the month of July, you will traverse 70 miles and help raise money for end-of-life care in east Kent.

During this extraordinary time it is more important than ever to make sure to stay active, exercise and feel connected to one another. Walking is good for us, both for our physical fitness and mental well-being, and you can join our friendly community of Pilgrims Hospice Hikers in our active Pilgrims Hospices Walking and Hiking Facebook group .

Its tough but achievable; with some training and determination anyone can conquer the Virtual Hike: Isle of Wight Coastal Path. Why not complete the hike with others from your household or bubble to make the journey even more enjoyable.
