Other walks in the area

Black Hambleton Circular

Departure from Osmotherley (North Yorkshire)

A circular walk around and over Black Hambleton and the end of Arden Moor; described here in a clockwise direction but just as good in reverse. There is a mixture of open moorland crossed via broad tracks and upland pasture crossed by narrow paths through the heather. It can be a little challenging in terms of navigation at the start but an alternative has been provided.

From Carlton Bank: Four hills and a dale

Departure from Bilsdale Midcable (North Yorkshire)

A nice 11 mile walk starting and finishing at the Lord Stones Cafe at the top of Carlton Bank, where there is good parking. It takes in the three North facing hills and the climb to Round Hill. The route returns down past Bilsdale Hall to Seave Green. From here it passes through rolling pastures to a short section on Raisdale Road before taking a lovely path through woods and over the moors back to the start.

In total it is 11.66 miles and covers 2262ft of ascent and descent.

Cringle Moor and The Wainstones

Departure from Bilsdale Midcable (North Yorkshire)

A half day, circular walk which takes in the three summits of the north facing ridge which runs from Lordstones to The Wainstones. It returns via the path which runs below the ridge and finishes at the Lordstones cafe.

The Wainstones from Chop Gate

Departure from Bilsdale Midcable (North Yorkshire)

A circular walk passing through farmland, onto the open moors and up to the ridge with the dramatic Wainstones. Return via the peaceful hamlet of Urra, passing the farm at Bilsdale Hall. Good refreshments in the Buck in at Chop Gate.

Round Hill and Stumps Cross from Chop Gate

Departure from Bilsdale Midcable (North Yorkshire)

This North York Moors walk takes you into the wild open moorland of this National Park. The route is mostly along well defined tracks and paths but do choose fine weather to enjoy the view.

Hawnby, Bilsdale West and Wetherhouse Moors

Departure from Hawnby (North Yorkshire)

This North York Moors route explores the moors to the north of the village of Hawnby and mainly uses moorland tracks. The walk makes a circuit of Hawnby, Bilsdale West and Wetherhouse Moors and gives views into upper Ryedale, Bilsdale and Ladhill Gill.

Hawnby Hill and Moor

Departure from Hawnby (North Yorkshire)

This is a very pleasant walk which is not too demanding in terms of length, ascent or navigation. It follows good tracks over the moors, quiet farm roads and has one section over the moor on a narrow path through the heather. Varied scenery, great views from the top of Hawnby Hill and a lovely country pub en-route.
