Summary
The most northerly and isolated of the Channel Islands, Alderney is a tranquil backwater, where visitors and cars are sparse and the locals most welcoming. This charming island lends itself perfectly to be discovered by bicycle, with gentle terrain and a regular sea breeze! We'll join local expert naturalists to enjoy wildlife cycles, walks and activities, including a search for Alderney's thriving population of Hedgehogs, many of which are leucistic (or 'Blonde'), as well as the chance to learn about Alderney’s remarkable history. All wildlife activities can be enjoyed with gentle e-Bike excursions (e-Bike and safety helmet rental included in the tour cost) from our very comfortable base, the splendid Braye Beach Hotel, which has fabulous views over the bay and its idyllic white sandy beach.
