A 37-mile trail starting at Ryde Pier Head, taking in some of the most beautiful parts of the island. Leaving Ryde and walking along the coast through Seaview and St. Helens to Bembridge, before heading inland, past the Windmill and into Brading. Views of Brading Downs, and a visit to Model Village in Godshill, before heading up Stenbury Down then to Ventnor. The final day starts from the Botanical Gardens, to Steephill Cove, Bonchurch, Ventnor, Shanklin, Sandown, Culver Down and back to Bembridge....oh and my name is Marek Larwood.

I have reached my lifetime goal, to be mentioned in a CDWC video is a true achievement. I would like to thank my mother, my father, etc. I do believe it was the Summer of 94 (sounds like a Bruce Springsteen song) and you forgot to mention where the other half of your wages went.... the Fisherman's Cottage of course. And you forgot to mention the hair braids, how amazing it was to have hair back then! Keep up the stellar work on this club CD#247

Yes I was going to put the Fisherman's Cottage in. I always think of that summer when I walk down that bit. I was trying to find a photo of you, me, Debbie, Leslie and Kieran having a pint there.

To get it all in, you have to stand in the road. *Your map of the iow is ace. 😁 *My favourite flavour of icecream is posh vanilla with the pods in. Stay cool. 🙂

Another great video, Cool Dude. Decades ago I stayed in Seaview for the regatta at the invitation of friends. They sail a 'one design' dinghy, probably in that race you showed. I met an actress there who I instantly recognised as having been in The Young Ones, albeit briefly. Amazingly ('cos I'm a tightwad) I have also stayed at The Priory Bay Hotel for some friends' combined 40th birthday do slightly fewer decades ago. We saw a red squirrel dash across the lawn and helicopters landing because it was British Grand Prix weekend and bigwigs were staying there and being ferried to the race; odd I know. Carry on.

Another lovely walk and as always a nice relaxing video to help unwind with.

The best selfie will find pride of place in the local newspaper under the headline 'These prices are a bloody disgrace'.

Nice looking walk cool dude! I must rid myself of the IoW curse and return. First time we went there, I had a bottle dropped on my head on the ferry over and had to go to Ryde Hospital for stitches. Second time, we had the worst holiday weather ever and we were burgled. Ah the Brading Waxworks! How this was suitable for an eight yr old in the early 80s only my parents can say. I think I avoided the chamber of horrors so I was only mildly scarred for life but the skeleton organist memory still scares me still today. A few months ago I found my Waxworks guidebook and put the pages on Pinterest. Must try those prawn cocktail Discos as well.
@cdwc

Prawn Cocktail Discos a bit of a disappointment as the Salt and Vinegar ones are a classic. I agree with you about the Wax Museum. I am still scared of the murder in the bedroom and the door opening. Especially as it happened in that very building.

Hello again 😁👋 Catching up on this one as I missed it somehow. Paused at 14:17 You asked if the plant was Snap Dragons?? I'm fairly sure its called Himalayan Balsam. An invasive species which can take over like wild fire. We have a lot of it here along the banks of River Loddon, Woodley. Teams of conservation volunteers regularly uprooting it to destroy it or mitigate its dominance, without success. It can grow so fast and so high. The only upside of it is Bees love the nectar. 😁😎👍

Excellent walk Marek . Your trail deserves official recognition so that future generations will know that great people live on the IOW. But you need to do something eye catching to achieve this immortality. You could become the IOW's first bona fide fakir !! Find a tall tree on your trail and live up it for a year subsisting on nothing but beer and crisps. Troubled souls from the UK would hear of this and flock to your trail hoping for a precious pearl of wisdom to set them straight. Worth a try , As an aside, Marek spelt backwards is Karem.

This was an educational film of epic proportions.

A few things threw me off balance, including the time travelling, the Don Johnson glasses and the hip new jaunty choons. But all for the good. I love the new cow-repelling hat, a guest IoW fact-er and the new cartography skills. If you can just now share your brother's address, I'll book my accommodation before I head over.

I am also a fan of pistachio. Lavender can be amazing, I had some in a restaurant once and it was the best ice cream I ever tasted. Then again I've had some truly awful lavender ice creams, so it is a risky choice.

There was a regatta in Burton near where I live where a field with a cow was gridded out with squares and you had to guess which square the cow would do a pat in. So yeah, I'd probably have that. Also, whenever I visit a model village I like to take a model dinosaur with me to either leave there or photograph . Just an extra bit of fun and makes the trip advisors reviews quite funny. Great video btw, I don't think I could do 37 miles in three days. Might try it in 5! 🤣👍
@cdwc

The Cow game is brilliant. I might go and buy a cow especially for the next walk to play it. I love the dinosaur model village idea. I wish I had thought of it. I would definitely spread this walk over more days if possible, it was just for people who might want to do it in a long weekend. Stay cool.

Even by Cool Dude standards this is a very cool video. I’ll be home alone for 3-4 days next May so I’ll see if I can book a couple of AirBnB’s and take this route too whilst stopping off at Appledurcombe House which is a worthy distraction on this walk. I hope you create more great walks for the IoW. One last thing, Rum & Raisin is an epic choice for ice cream. I had that too in Sandown a few weeks ago from a place just opposite the pier.

Great video, all those steep slopes though! Not for me I'm afraid. One of my ambitions is to do an IoW trail for those who can walk short distances at a time (about 5 miles) on fairly level paths - in other words for those with dodgy knees i.e.me. Might be of interest also to others as well - given the number of oldiwonks on the Island!

This is epic work, thank you Marek. I've never been to the IoW, but this could give me the impetus I've been waiting for. I need to know what you buried! To answer your question I think it's a tie between mint choc-chip and coffee, but any ice cream is good ice cream. I had a liquorice ripple one in Finland which ace even though I was initially quite suspicious of it. 🙂

No-one has told me if they have done it yet, and the treasure buried at one point in the walk only has the same names on the log paper that were there last year. As for your question - I think there is no continuous route that combines the best bits of the Island but I would say 75% is excellent. I am currently doing the Vectis Trail which has a lower hit rate. I think at the end of that one I might mark off where I think the best walks are on the Island, or maybe do a separate video.
