Heard of the Niton tunnels ? Although the two pubs are easily walkable by road, two more suggestions as follows.

A great pub walk from the White Horse in Whitwell.

A walk along bridleways, a ridgeway and open countryside.

This recommended walk of about 9 miles will take you over the river Medina, up and over Ramsdown to Chillerton village. Then north to Gatcombe to start the climb onto Newbarn Down and Chillerton Down with panoramic views across the island. Passing close to the TV mast you descend through the old marl pits and return via the water meadows of the wilderness.

Mostly on bridleways with some long but gentle gradients.

Great walk around the Chequers Inn where you can stop for refreshment after the effort.

Walk from Rookley Post office back to Rookley Main Road via Birchmore Lane. The Walk on the map actually starts and returns to Oakdene.

Most of this walk overlooks the sea (Brighstone Bay) and is exhilarating. Don't miss Whale Chine, which reveals a narrow but deep, dark gorge. The end of the walk overlooks St Catherine's Point. This is the third of a series of 6 walks that will take you around the Isle of Wight from west to east on the Coastal Path.

A walk across farmland and by historic Haseley Manor, one of the oldest houses on the Island.

A short pub walk across open countryside and through the iconic village of Winkle Street.
