Cleveland Way Trailblazer Walking Guidebook

Cleveland Way Trailblazer Walking Guidebook

by: Henry Stedman
The Cleveland Way National Trail is set in the beautiful wild countryside of the North York Moors National Park. It runs 107.4 miles from Helmsley near Thirsk around the western edge of the park to reach the coast at Saltburn-by-the-Sea. It then continues along the eastern edge of the park south down the coast through Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay and Scarborough to finish at Filey. Combining moorland and coast, there's a wonderful scenic variety to this walk with crumbling castles and idyllic fishing villages to explore.

One of the strengths of Trailblazer guides is the mapping and this guide includes 48 highly detailed walking sketch maps at the large scale of 1:20,000, making route finding easy. The unique mapping features include walking times, directions, tricky junctions, places to stay, places to eat and points of interest. These are not general purpose maps but fully edited maps drawn by walkers for walkers. Downloadable GPS waypoints are also included.

The maps are supported by detailed route descriptions with the trail divided into nine day walk sections. However, itineraries can be devised for all walkers, whether hiking the entire route or sampling highlights on day walks or short breaks. A comprehensive distance table listing all towns and villages allows for individual planning of overnight stops.

The book includes plentiful accommodation options, pubs and restaurants and detailed guides to 27 towns and villages. There is a comprehensive section providing practical information for all budgets describing what to see, where to eat (cafes, pubs and restaurants); where to stay (B&B's, hotels, bunkhouses, hostels and campsites). Every aspect of planning is included in this introductory section of the book.

Helmsley to Sutton Bank - 10.3 miles
Sutton Bank to Osmotherley - 11.6 miles
