Overview
Commencing in the delightful market town of Helmsley, nestled on the southern edge of the North York Moors, our clockwise route unravels a tapestry of England's most captivating and varied scenery. En route, you'll encounter several iconic highlights, including the renowned Sutton Bank with its striking White Horse etched into the hillside, the distinctive silhouette of Roseberry Topping, the haunting ruins of Whitby Abbey atop a windswept hill, the postcard-perfect harbor village of Staithes, the vibrant seaside hub of Scarborough, and the well-loved coastal town of Filey.
This 109-mile path is conveniently divided into nine manageable day walks. The journey is a harmonious blend of inland exploration, venturing northward through the scenic Cleveland Hills to meet the coast at Saltburn. From there, the path traces a southerly route, unveiling the picturesque charm of Staithes, leading to the historic gems of Whitby, Scarborough, and culminating in the vibrant allure of Filey.
Each leg of the journey offers a unique blend of terrain and vistas, ensuring that every step is a revelation. We've thoughtfully selected two hotels in close proximity to the path, providing seamless transportation to and from the trailheads as needed. This means you can enjoy the convenience of unpacking just once and carrying no more than a day sack. Our chosen accommodations prioritise comfort and minimise travel time, allowing you to focus on the breath-taking journey ahead.
