Overview

This is a 5.5 mile circular walk, starting from the pretty village of Scalby. The first half of the walk is slightly undulating as we follow good tracks towards Keld Runnels Farm, then crossing field paths and through the pretty Holly Wood until we reach Mowthorpe Farm. Here we pick up the Tabular Hills path and follow it alongside the Sea Cut back to Scalby.
