Walking holidays in Jersey
Just 14 miles off the coast of France, Jersey blends British character with French flair. Compact and charming, it’s perfect for a walking holiday. Explore breathtaking clifftop paths, idyllic hidden coves, sprawling tidal flats, and white sandy beaches. Easily reached in around an hour from over 20 UK airports, Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands, may be just nine miles by five, but it packs a real punch and it’s bursting with adventure.
Where else can you explore majestic castles and wartime and neolithic history, walk panoramic coastal paths, dine on fresh local seafood and farm-to-table produce, and sip sunset cocktails overlooking a beautiful bay, all in a single day? From the buzz of the capital, St. Helier, to the tranquility and hidden beauty of secluded beaches and bays, Jersey’s unique blend of coast, countryside and character makes it a destination worthy of any short-break bucket list.
Epic Coastline
As the sea retreats, the island nearly doubles in size revealing a changing landscape of spectacular scenery and landmarks steeped in history. Experience it all on HF Holidays’ Jersey Coastal Path Guided Trail Holiday. Officially known as the Jersey Tidal Trail, this 48-mile circular walking route follows the island’s shoreline shaped by some of the world’s biggest tides. Guided by our expert HF Leaders, you’ll enjoy safe, insightful, and scenic walks that takes you from south coast's serene harbours of St. Helier to St. Aubin’s Bay to more challenging cliff-top hikes along the dramatic north coast.
Small Island, Big History
If you’re wondering what to do on Jersey beyond the beaches and beautiful walks, the answer is easy. The island has over 250,000 years of history. Learn about life under Nazi occupation during WWII in the Jersey War Tunnels, explore the medieval passages of Mont Orgueil Castle, and visit La Hougue Bie, a neolithic passage grave older than the pyramids. All three feature on our Jersey Guided Walking with Sightseeing holiday and rank as some of the best places to visit in Jersey.
