A self-guided walk around the North York Moors National Park and the Cleveland Heritage Coast.
From £265 per person
Beginning in the old market town of Helmsley, the Cleveland Way traverses the western escarpment of the North York Moors to the coast at Saltburn-by-the-Sea, before following the Cleveland Heritage Coast to the Victorian town of Filey.
While walking through the Moors, the trail traverses woodland, green dales and heather moorland. This section is packed with historic interest, including the iconic White Horse of Kilburn. The coastal section then follows high cliffs, sandy bays and wooded ‘wykes'. Picturesque fishing villages pepper the trail, as well as the famous port of Whitby. Overall, the Cleveland Way is an incredible walking trail filled with intrigue and beauty.
Dogs are welcome on select routes along this trail. Look for the pawprint icon when choosing your holiday.
“I was lucky with the weather. I had only one day with rain and two days with some drizzle. The views were great. And I met interesting people. The Cleveland Way is an excellent mixture of moorland and coastal walk with some places of history, e.g. Rievaulx Abbey, Whitby Abbey. Again the team of Contours did a good job. It was my walk no 14 with Contours!”Mr Witzel, Germany
“The variety of landscapes on the Cleveland Way was really nice. The luggage transportation was flawless and the variety of lodging hosts and facilities was terrific. Well done!”Mr McCoy, USA
