Walk Details
This circular walk takes you back in time, to a time when this landscape was alive with mining. Taken from Julia’s television series of Railway Walks, we’re following the now disused Rosedale Railway.

We’re starting at The Lion Inn car park on Blakey Ridge (grid reference SE 679 997). It’s a great pub at the highest point of the North York Moors National Park – and the food and drink served here are just what you need when you return from your walk!

Remember to prepare properly before heading out on any type of walk or outdoor activity. Tell people where you are going and what time you are expected back. As Wainwright says "There's no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing".
