1. Rosedale Railway Walk
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 9 reviews
Reviewed By johnhouston2 - Knaresborough, United Kingdom
This is a beautiful walk and, as it is along an old railway bed, it is flat and easy to walk. NB however that he map on the TA review shows this to be on the outskirts of York, but it is nowhere near it and is actually on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors. Drive to Hutton le Hole, which is a beautiful village just up from Kirkbymoorside, then drive towards Rosedale Abbey. About a mile or so before Rosedale Abbey you will see car parking on the left hand side, and a couple of benches giving views over Rosedale. This is actually on top of Rosedale Chimney Bank - the steep hill down to the village. Park here and the railway walk is the track heading away to your left, past the old mine works. Alternatively, I tend to drive from Hutton le Hole towards Danby along Blakey Ridge. When you get to the junction of the road to Church Houses, you will see a car parking space on your right hand side. You can access the walk from here. Get to the track, turn right and it takes you to the top of Rosedale Chimney Bank. There are no catering facilities at either end of the walk, so take a flask, although there are a couple of good tearooms in Hutton le Hole and also in Rosedale Abbey.

We stayed in a holiday cottage around the corner and came to the cycle hub several times for food, the breakfasts in particular are excellent. Friendly staff and a fine selection of cakes too.

4. Scarborough to Whitby Rail Trail

Reviewed By Joncer - York, United Kingdom
This former railway line has been turned into a cycling/walking/riding path. Makes for good easy walking, an alternative to the Cleveland Way.
5. The Swale Trail
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 12 reviews
Reviewed By Ordinary_Guy_3
April is the perfect time to bike this 12 mile trail which has all types of scenery. It’s a bit bumpy and tough on bikes in places and the going after Gunnerside is a lot more testing. However there are some lovely stretches. One of my favourite is at the top of the hill after Gunnerside Lodge where the track flattens out to provide some lovely views of the Dale. The Little White Bus is handy for getting back into Reeth although careful planning is needed. We did the whole trail very comfortably in 2.5 hours which included walking in places.
