Overview

This is a 9 mile circular walk from Settrington which was mentioned in the Doomsday Book and is a village nestling below the northern end of the Yorkshire Wolds.  Some quietish road stretches are included but the undulating route generally entails good tracks and fields with a few stiles, and follows sections of the Yorkshire Wolds Way and Centenary Way.  On a sunny day - the views are magnificent.  We head up to Settrington Beacon and continue the route down to North Grimston, returning via farmland and road, back to Settrington.
