GPX Route Map robinhoodsbay-1Download Walk Description Start the walk by descending through the narrow streets of this old smugglers village before leaving it near the beach. Follow the Cleveland Way signs past the well, named Boggle Hole, to the end of the bay. Climb steeply up the path through fields to Ravenscar and the wonderfully situated hotel overlooking the cliff edge. To vary the return follow the Old Railway line inland before descending back in to the bay. It is perfectly possible (outside high tide) to spend some of the walk near the village on the beach itself. This is a perfect walk to add to your #WalkshireWishlist for the Spring or Autumn seasons, as the wetter weather can make the terrain muddier and the route more challenging than usual. Lunch The Victoria Hotel and the Flask Inn both serve food.
