We are the Cleveland Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
After crossing the River Esk by stepping stones or bridge, we climb in a southerly direction along field paths and quiet roads to Lord Chair Hill. With extensive views over the Esk valley, the route follows a path W above old quarries to Moss Brow, then S along a road to the Murkside House track. We follow track and field paths to Murk Esk Cottage, then a path W and N to join the Rail Trail below Dowson Garth. The Trail is followed N to Grosmont, and the the old Toll Road takes us back to Egton Bridge.
No cattle were encountered on the recce.
There will be a ten minute break. Please feel free to bring a drink/snack to enjoy.
There are toilets near the car park and we also pass toilets at Grosmont.
Assistance dogs only.
