Overview

A circular walk around the Flamborough Headland starting at Thornwick Bay. We will walk around the the coast passing North Landing, Flamborough Head, South Landing and Danes Dyke before passing through Flamborough Village on our way to join the coastal path and return to Thornwick Bay.

There are plenty of seabirds to see and seals if the tide is out.
The ground is hard at the moment, if it rains significantly after 24th March, it could be muddy in places.
Parking is along the grass verge on the road to Thornwick Bay as the car park doesn’t open until Easter.
