Walking in the North York Moors

North York Moors

Highlights
  • Discover the North York Moors as part of an unforgettable walking adventure
  • Walk along clifftop trails on the east coast, taking in stunning sea views

The North York Moors, one of the largest heather moorlands in the UK, offers some of England's finest countryside and landscapes. This walking holiday will awaken all your senses with charming Lakeland villages serving tea and scones, country pubs, sea views, sheep-filled mountains, and expansive moorland. Along the way, you'll meet fellow walkers and enjoy the camaraderie at cosy B&Bs. Our Coast to Coast Walk and Cleveland Way trips both feature the North York Moors, giving you the freedom to choose your preferred route.

The Coast to Coast Walk spans two coasts, three national parks, and nearly 200 miles of footpaths. This long-distance walk takes you through picturesque villages and the mountains of the Pennines, the Lake District, and the North York Moors—a rewarding challenge you'll cherish forever.

Alternatively, the Cleveland Way focuses solely on the North York Moors, skirting the National Park and showcasing diverse landscapes from high cliffs to peaceful seaside towns. Explore an untouched area of Northern England where dinosaurs once roamed, pilgrims established abbeys and churches, and historic villages offer quaint shops and warm local hospitality.

  • The Yorkshire Matterhorn

    Locals like to call Roseberry Topping the “Yorkshire Matterhorn” — which is a bit cheeky, considering it’s less Alpine giant and more perfectly sculpted hill with a flair for drama. Rising sharply from the gentle folds of the North York Moors, it looks like it’s trying very hard to be intimidating, but in reality, it’s a friendly climb with views that punch well above their weight!
