点评:We were staying in a nearby village so decided to walk to Niton, head to Ventnor along the Coastal Path and then back to our village in a sort of triangle-shaped route. There was a (fairly old, admittedly) book of IoW beaches in the cottage that we were staying in, so we were hoping to visit some of the lovely sounding beaches along the Coastal Path stretch. However, to our disappointment it turns out that quite a long stretch of this part of the Coastal Path is currently closed. In fairness the diversions are quite well signposted but it mean that for quite a long section we were walking along a road that was slightly in-land and not wandering along a coastal path or visiting beaches as we'd hoped.
Obviously this is no-one's fault but it might be worth checking the status of whichever part of the path you're hoping to walk before setting off in order to avoid any disappointment.
翻译:我们住在附近的一个村庄,于是决定步行前往尼顿(Niton),沿着海岸小径前往文特诺(Ventnor),然后沿着海岸线返回村庄,形成一个大致呈三角形的路线。我们住的小屋里有一本(不得不承认,确实有点旧了)怀特岛海滩指南,所以我们原本希望能够沿着海岸小径去看看那些听起来很美的海滩。然而,令我们失望的是,海岸小径的这一段相当长的路段目前处于封闭状态。平心而论,绕行路线的指示牌很清晰,但这也就意味着,在相当长的一段路程中,我们只能沿着一条略微内陆的公路行走,而无法像我们希望的那样沿着海岸小径漫步或游览海滩。
当然,这并非任何人的错,但为了避免失望,出发前最好还是查询一下你计划徒步的那段路线的开放情况。
