Overview

We begin our walk in Scarborough, heading north along the Cleveland Way. The route follows the cliff top path with many beautiful views – it includes some gentle stretches and some steeper climbs and descents, passing Hayburn Wyke and the wooded glades of Staintondale. As we approach Ravenscar the path levels out, with views of the old alum works and ahead to Robin Hoods Bay.
