Geowalk: Explore Plémont
Explore Jersey’s past, from wild landscapes to rich culture and ancient stories, on a guided walk with an aspiring Jersey Geopark guide.
Join us to explore the caves of Plémont Bay and discover the history of the granite rocks and many intrusions and fault lines which cut through the bay. Experience the tectonic history of the Island and also a route followed by many Victorian and Edwardian tourists who came to the bay to be impressed by the wildness of the nature to be found there.
The beach is always changing and sometimes there are deep pools to get into the caves so sandals (no flip flops), neoprene shoes or trainers that can get wet are essential. This two hour geowalk will also include a walk over the headland now saved for the Island by the National Trust for Jersey.
This Geowalk starts next to the bus stop in the top carpark at Plémont.
Geopark Guide: Nicky Mansell
Directions: https://w3w.co/begged.halo.flops
Duration: 2 to 2.5hours
Difficulty: Medium to Difficult
This route follows rough paths, steep steps and the beach. Please wear sensible footwear such as trainers as we will be walking over uneven cliff paths.
