Please be advised that the newly excavated track on the South East side of the Island is closed to vehicular traffic, other than authorized Ascension Island Government personnel and emergency services.
This track starts at Cricket Valley, leading under White Horse Hill towards Benji Hill.
The purpose of this track is for safe rescue access, and access for AIG Conservation to carry out important monitoring, seabird observations and endemic plant restoration work. Once the track has been completed eco-tours can be booked with the Conservation Centre.
Persons hiking are allowed to proceed beyond the ‘No Unauthorised Vehicle’ sign. Please note when walking this track that you do so at your own risk, and you are advised to take due care and attention.
Road closures are made in accordance with the authority given to me under the Road Traffic Ordinance and are enforceable. Failure to obey such notices, as well as no entry signs etc, is an offence.
