Using this guide

This guidebook contains details of 50 walking routes, spread all around the North York Moors National Park. Most are circular, so that anyone using a car can return to their vehicle at the end of the walk; however, a few are linear and require the use of public transport to complete them. Together, these routes cover almost 725km (450 miles) of rich and varied countryside, taking in some of the finest and most interesting features on and near the moors. The route summary table in Appendix A is provided to help you choose between the different routes.

Read the route descriptions carefully before setting out, and if carrying Ordnance Survey maps in addition to the extracts used in this book, be sure to take the ones listed for each walk. The essential information for each route is presented under standard headings.

Start/Finish: usually the same place, but sometimes different.

Distance/Ascent/Descent: given in kilometres, miles, metres and feet.

Time: duration of the walk, but not including time spent resting, eating, etc.
