点评:This is a must do if you live an active lifestyle, and are in Alderney for any length of time. Promoted by Tourism Alderney, we found out about it when we stuck our heads into the Victoria Street office. “Oh yes,” we were told, “it will take 4-5 hours.” Well, it took all of that - and more - but it was well worth the effort. This 16.4km / 10 mile path skirts the island, is moderate in difficulty, and offers something for everyone. There are birds for the birder, Victorian fortifications and echoes of WW2 for the history buff, flowers and plants for the naturalist. There are Alderney pigs to see, diving Gannets to watch, and cliffs to admire. If you are a Geocacher, yes, you can do that too. There’s even a word game that can be played with letters found on the trail markers, and a return trip to the tourism office after path completion earns one a completion certificate. We found that navigation using the supplied paper map in conjunction with the AllTrails app for some decisions at junctions kept us on the path. Start anywhere, finish anywhere, but if you like to keep things 1,2,3 etc. and take the best advantage of the app, start at Braye. Pack water and a lunch, wear good shoes, and rub in the sunscreen because much of the trail is exposed. Have fun.
翻译:如果你热爱运动,并且会在奥尔德尼岛停留一段时间,那么这条步道绝对不容错过。这条步道由奥尔德尼旅游局推广,我们是在维多利亚街的旅游办公室偶然发现的。“哦,是的,”工作人员告诉我们,“全程需要4-5个小时。” 事实上,我们花了不止4-5个小时,但绝对值得。这条16.4公里/10英里的步道环绕着整个岛屿,难度适中,适合所有人。观鸟爱好者可以观赏各种鸟类,历史爱好者可以探寻维多利亚时代的防御工事和二战遗迹,自然爱好者则可以欣赏各种花卉植物。你还可以看到奥尔德尼猪、潜水塘鹅,以及壮丽的悬崖峭壁。如果你是寻宝爱好者,这里也能满足你的需求。你甚至可以用步道标记上的字母玩文字游戏,走完步道后返回旅游办公室领取一份完工证书。我们发现,结合纸质地图和 AllTrails 应用进行导航,尤其是在一些岔路口,能帮助我们顺利找到正确的路线。起点和终点都可以选择,但如果你喜欢按部就班,充分利用应用的功能,建议从布雷(Braye)出发。记得带上水和午餐,穿舒适的鞋子,并涂抹防晒霜,因为大部分路段都比较开阔。祝您旅途愉快!
