Walk: Sherburn to West Heslerton
Walk part of the amazing Yorkshire Wolds Way National Trail between Sherburn and West Heslerton on this easy walk from a Coastliner bus. The Route what3words for start point: ///amphibian.nudge.bongo Start Point: Bus stops near Sherburn Fire Station, Sherburn, Malton YO17 8QG Finish Point: Bus stops near West Heslerton, Malton YO17 8RQ Distance: 5 Miles GPX Route Map walkshiresherburntowestheslertonDownload Walk Description From the bus stops, turn so the Fire Station is behind you, and walk away from it alongside the A64. There is not pavement here, just grass verges, so be careful walking alongside this busy road - but it isn’t for too long. Just after the national speed limit signs, you are turning left following a public footpath sign down an access road. If you are on the opposite side of the A64, you’ll need to cross over first. Follow the access road, past the entrance to the farm on the left, after which the road changes to a path. Continue along this keeping the hedgerow on your left. It turns slightly to the right, and then passes through the hedgerow, turns to the right and enters into a wood. Follow this through to the road, called White Gate. Turn right here, and you are on the Yorkshire Wolds Way National Trail. As the road turns to the left, the National Trail turns right, so follow this alongside of the hedgerow. When you meet the corner of the wood, turn left, and follow the path, past a wood on the left, to a field boundary - where you turn left. Follow this line, turning right at the next field boundary and walking with a wood to your right. At the end of the wood, turn left, then right to follow around the corner of the field. This is still the Yorkshire Wolds Way. Now there’s a wood to your left side, which goes half way through this field. Cross into the next, where the path takes a slight left, to reach an access road. Cross over, following the signs for the Yorkshire Wolds Way into the next field. There’s a small wood on your left, and then two open fields, before you zig zag to your left, then right around the corners of fields. Go alongside three fields, before turning left, then right around a plantation, to reach a road, called Lutton Lane. Turn right here, and follow this road all the way down to the village of West Heslerton - taking care of traffic on this country road, which changes its name to White Gate. When you reach the A64, turn right and the bus stops are on either side of the traffic island.

Walk: The Centenary Way
England's picturesque landscapes are woven with countless trails, but one that captures the essence of both natural beauty and historical depth is the Centenary Way. This long-distance footpath stretches approximately 209 kilometres (130 miles) and offers an immersive journey through the heart of Yorkshire. Established in 1989 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the North and East Yorkshire County Councils, the Centenary Way is a path less travelled but rich with sights and stories. The Route what3words for start point: ///shot.before.large Start Point: York Minster, Deangate, York YO1 7HH Finish Point: Filey Distance: 130 miles GPX Route Map centenary-way-yorkshireDownload Walk Description Starting Point: York Minster The journey begins at the majestic York Minster, one of the largest cathedrals in Northern Europe. The Minster is not just a starting point but a symbol of the historical depth you'll encounter on this trek. From here, the path winds through the quaint streets of York, exiting the city into the expansive landscapes that characterize rural Yorkshire. Through the Vale of York and the Yorkshire Wolds After leaving York, the Centenary Way heads northeast towards the Howardian Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The route meanders through lush valleys and woodlands, offering tranquil views and a peaceful walking experience. The path then continues into the Yorkshire Wolds, known for their rolling hills and deep dry valleys, providing breathtaking vistas and challenging hikes. Historical Highlights and Natural Beauty One of the most enchanting aspects of the Centenary Way is its rich tapestry of historical sites. Castles, ancient ruins, and historic villages dot the landscape. Highlights include the ruins of Sheriff Hutton Castle, the serene beauty of Castle Howard’s grounds, and the market towns like Malton, known for its food festivals and Roman history. The trail also passes through less frequented, but equally mesmerizing, areas such as the River Derwent and the quaint village of Filey. Here, the trail shifts dramatically as it approaches the coast, culminating in the dramatic cliffs and expansive views of the North Sea at Filey Brigg.
