Beautiful nature, Helga! If you like walking and landscapes, you will LOVE the Isle of Wight! And as long as you watch your step, you will be alright! ;-) Have a great trip!

Great "off the beaten path" tip! I have one very much the same on my Point Reyes National Park tip. :-)

Some great nature pictures! Pity that in dry seasons some of the places are not accessable, but anyway, that is for the best! Fire can be so destructive! great page Helga!
