Bike & Walk Routes
Experience the beauty of Jersey
Sand dunes to Le Braye
This direct route to the beach crosses Jersey’s iconic sand dunes, being recognized among Europe's finest dunes. It offers spectacular views of the entire bay and the chance of a safe swim at one of the Island’s best-loved beaches. It will be a walk to remember.
West coast walks
Spectacular landscapes, a variety of terrain and a network of well-managed tracks make Jersey an ideal holiday location for walkers of every ability. You certainly don’t need a car to enjoy a break a Jersey.
In fact, Les Ormes’ superb location in the far west of the Island puts us within walking distance of many of Jersey’s must-see beaches, landmarks and attractions.
In our opinion, there’s no better way to explore the west of the Island than by pulling on a pair of boots or trainers and putting your legs to work. Here are four of our favourite walking routes, which most of our guests can comfortably complete in an afternoon.
Explore Val de la Mare Reservoir
This reservoir makes for an immersive and relaxing walk. The Arboretum at Val de la Mare contains trees and plants from all over the world, thriving because of Jersey's mild weather. Take a stroll around the reservoir and take in sites of beautiful wildlife & glistening waters.

Railway walk to Corbière lighthouse
This easy walk takes you west along the railway walk, through quiet woodland, to Jersey’s southwestern tip, La Corbière. Once you arrive at Corbiere, you will be greeted by the stunning coastal views and the fantastic lighthouse.
There is an ice-cream van located in the carpark by the lighthouse. You can get a taste of Jersey ice-cream made from locally produced Jersey cow milk! There is also a restaurant here which makes for a fantastic meal with sea views.
Fun at St. Catherine's Woods
At St. Catherine's woods, not only can you get your steps in for the day, but you can also have a lot of fun! From wooden paths and beautiful streams to giving it a go on the makeshift swing - this woodland adventure will be a highlight of your holiday.
