Overview

The walk starts at just outside Commodale (on the waste ground used for Parking). We walk down the road into Commondale, where we will have opportunity to use the public conveniences, then we will continue uphill on the road until we reach the public footpath . We follow the public footpath up Brow Hill and then follow the Quakers' Causeway Path for approx 1km. When the path spits we take the left hand path across the moor and then up through Westworth Wood and into Guisborough Woods. Once we meet the Cleveland Way we turn left and follow this to Highcliff Nab (where we will have a late lunch).

After Lunch will walk towards Highcliffe Farm and then turn north east down a track (Parallel to the Cleveland Way). After a short distance we will follow another track south passing Penrod Hill for a couple of kilometres. We will then follow another track east and then south  across North Ings Moor back to Commondale and the cars.
