Wellow Down - view of Freshwater Bay

Highlight • Trail

This section of the Chalk Ridge Extreme XC mountain biking route runs parallel to the famous Military Road, but much higher up on the hill, yielding amazing views of the chalky cliffs and Freshwater below.

There's usually some gorgeous cows grazing up here.

Take care as you go through the golf course if you're descending towards Freshwater. Four!

Five Barrows Trig Point and Ancient Burial Site

Highlight • Viewpoint

There are superb views of the south coast of the Isle of Wight from high up here at the Trig Point known as Five Barrows. Look carefully around and you will see remnants of its name sake. It is an ancient burial site and remains of the burial chambers, or barrows, are still visible.
