Tennyson Down & The Needles Circular Day Hiking, Isle Of Wight, England, UK
Tennyson Down & The Needles Circular Day Hiking, Isle Of Wight, England, UK
Tennyson Down and The Needles circular day hiking was around 6.5 mile in length. My partner Anne and I did this hike on our own whilst on a holiday on the Isle Of Wight with family and friends during September 2010. We started this day hiking trip just east of Freshwater Bay, parking just off the A3055 in a small free car park.
This was an easy to moderate hike with a wooden staircase, a short steep incline and a few long gentle inclines to cope with. The hike was fairly simple, hiking westward along the coast via Tennyson Down and Alum Bay to The Needles. We also return back over Tennyson Down via Freshwater Bay.

Viewing Freshwater Bay from Tennyson Down - Isle of Wight
Viewing Freshwater Bay from the Tennyson Down on the Isle of Wight.
Walking up Tennyson down Isle of Wight
Freshwater is famous for its geology and coastal rock formations that have resulted from centuries worth of coastal erosion. The Arch Rock was a well-known local landmark that collapsed on 25 October 1992.[8] The neighbouring Stag Rock is so named because supposedly a stag leaped to the rock from the cliff to escape during a hunt. Another huge slab fell off the cliff face in 1968, and is now known as the Mermaid Rock.[Immediately behind Mermaid Rock lies a small Sea cave that cuts several metres into the new cliff.
DJI Phantom 3S - 6th Flight - Tennyson Down Sunset
Nothing really exciting here. Wanted to fly the drone around Freshwater Bay but for some reason the P3S wouldn't calibrate saying strong interference . Didn't want it heading off in the wrong direction so went to Tennyson Downs. Also kept it well away from the cliff until I'm a little confident :)

Isle Of Wight Tennyson Down, The Needles, Alum Bay & Headon Warren
Take a walk with a couple of middle aged poofs and two dogs along the beautiful Isle Of Wight coastline starting on Tennyson Down followed by a look at the Needles, which seem far smaller than I remembered them when I came here in the early 80s. We also see Alum Bay, famous for its coloured sand and end the walk through Headon Warren.

Freshwater is a large village and civil parish at the western end of the Isle of Wight, England. Freshwater Bay is a small cove on the south coast of the Island which also gives its name to the nearby part of Freshwater. Freshwater sits at the western end of the region known as the Back of the Wight or the West Wight which is a popular tourist area.
Freshwater is close to steep chalk cliffs. It was the birthplace of physicist Robert Hooke and was the home of Poet Laureate Alfred Lord Tennyson. Freshwater is famous for its geology and coastal rock formations that have resulted from centuries worth of coastal erosion. The Arch Rock was a well-known local landmark.
Freshwater's beach is very popular. It is mostly sandy but it is also covered in chalk from the nearby cliffs, which is frequently gathered by tourists as souvenirs. Freshwater features an excellent example of a surviving Victorian Beach hotel, The Albion. The Albion was built around the time Freshwater became popularised as a coastal resort, and is still popular today. However, the heavy storms which often lift rocks and other debris from the beach means that the building's exterior walls often have to be repainted, with cracks, chips and dents in the walls often being repaired too.
The hills above Freshwater are named after Tennyson. On the nearby Tennyson Down is a Cornish granite cross erected in 1897 in tribute to Tennyson, by the people of Freshwater, and other friends in England and America. There is also a hill in the area called 'Hooke Hill', named for Robert Hooke. All Saints' Church, Freshwater is one of the oldest churches on the Isle of Wight, and was listed in the Domesday survey of 1086.
Dimbola Lodge, the home of Julia Margaret Cameron and now a photographic museum, is in the village of Freshwater Bay, which is part of Freshwater. There is also a tearoom and bookstore. Tennyson's son, Hallam donated land for a new church in Freshwater Bay. Hallam's wife Audrey suggested that the church be named for St. Agnes. St. Agnes' Church, Freshwater was consecrated on 12 August 1908.
Freshwater was the site of the largest station on the Freshwater, Yarmouth and Newport Railway that operated from 20 July 1889 to 21 September 1953. Freshwater is near the source of the Western Yar, a river whose estuary runs north to Yarmouth. Freshwater Marshes are a Site of Special Scientific Interest,
At the western end of Freshwater Bay on a bluff are the remains of Fort Redoubt, also known as Fort Freshwater or Freshwater Redoubt, a Palmerston Fort. Fort Redoubt was built in 1855-1856 to protect Freshwater Bay, and was in use until the early 20th century. It was sold by the military in 1928. Presently, part of it is a private residence, and other portions are being developed as holiday flats.
Freshwater is linked to other parts of the Island by Southern Vectis buses on route 7 and route 12 serving Totland, Yarmouth and Newport as well as intermediate villages. In the Summer, open top bus The Needles Tour and tourist service Island Coaster serve Freshwater Bay. Freshwater is on the Isle of Wight Coastal Path.
( Freshwater - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting the city of Freshwater . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Freshwater - UK

Travel Short Film: Day at the Isle of Wight | Tennyson Down | Needles Headland | Alum Bay
Day trip to the Isle of Wight with the Oxford University Islamic Society, 7th September 2019.
Everything about this day was surreal.
I had what was probably one of the most profound moments of my entire existence as I looked around from the top deck of the ferry on our way back. Nothing but darkness and vast expanse and water all around you, except for the moon and stars shining bright in the sky, and the moonlight reflecting on the water, and a sense of almost flying as you take all this in. This may sound dramatic but on my death bed, this is probably what will be flashing before my eyes.
