Discover dramatic cliffs, golden beaches and a rich island heritage with this guide to 24 inland and coastal walks on Jersey. The largest of the Channel Islands, Jersey combines rugged headlands, sandy bays, green valleys and fascinating historic sites within a compact and easily explored landscape. From sweeping cliff paths to peaceful country lanes, these routes reveal the island's varied character at a relaxed pace, suitable for both newcomers and experienced walkers.
Walks range from 5-13km (3-8 miles) and can be linked to create longer outings, including the 80km (50-mile) Jersey Coastal Walk, part of the Channel Island Way. Highlights include the turquoise waters of St Brelade's Bay, the commanding medieval stronghold of Mont Orgueil Castle above Gorey, sweeping dunes and dramatic cliff scenery, as well as reminders of the island's turbulent past from prehistoric monuments to Second World War fortifications.
- 24 carefully described inland and coastal walks across Jersey, with routes ranging from 5-13km (3-8 miles) and options to link sections into longer days, including the full 80km Jersey Coastal Walk.
- Clear step-by-step route descriptions supported by 1:25,000 maps from the official States of Jersey Leisure Maps for accurate navigation along cliff paths, beaches, green lanes and quiet country roads.
- Each walk includes distance, terrain notes, facilities, refreshment options and public transport information, helping you plan flexible outings from bases such as St Helier.
- Routes explore Jersey's diverse landscapes, from rugged north coast cliffs and hidden coves to fertile inland valleys, wooded lanes and historic harbours.
- Historical and cultural highlights featured throughout, including castles, churches, prehistoric sites and coastal fortifications from the Nazi occupation.
- Practical guidance on access, waymarking, getting around the island, accommodation and seasonal considerations, with spring wildflowers and long summer days offering particularly rewarding conditions.
Whether you are tracing the island's spectacular coastline, exploring peaceful inland valleys or discovering centuries of history in compact surroundings, this guidebook provides everything you need to make the most of walking on Jersey.
