All about North York Moors

Consisting of moorland, coastline, forests, and fields, and packed full of delightful attractions and outdoor adventures, the North York Moors has a little something for everybody. At its heart there’s the 554 square miles of North York Moors National Park, which is slightly less celebrated compared to the nearby Lake District and Yorkshire Dales. But this is, of course, perfect for the intrepid visitor, as you’ll get to enjoy the wondrous walking trails and landscape all to yourself. While you’ll want to dust off those walking boots and get out your waterproofs, there’s more than yomping on offer. There are delightful seaside towns such as Robin Hood’s Bay and Whitby, spectacular ruins like those at Rievaulx Abbey and Mount Grace Priory, and watery wonders like Cod Beck Reservoir and Gormire Lake, plus spectacular stargazing at a number of Dark Skies sites. But for all these distractions, it’s the majesty of the countryside that you’re here to encounter, trundling along from one picture-perfect village to the next, fuelling up on cream teas and fat rascals (a local delicacy), and taking in the breathtaking scenery.

Captain Cook Memorial Museum

This enchanting museum in Whitby occupies the 17th-century home of the ship owner with whom the famed seafarer started his nautical career. He also had many of his ships built in the town’s dockyards. You’ll see various artefacts and ephemera from Cook’s renowned career and expeditions plus various temporary exhibitions celebrating the sea and the figures who loomed large in Cook’s life.

The Moor to Sea Cycle Network

Whether you’re a mild weekend pedaller or a full-throttle downhill racer, fans of two-wheeled vehicular activity are required to make a pilgrimage at least once in their riding lives to this flagship cycling route. There are around 150 miles to tackle here, taking around 5 to 7 days from Scarborough to Dalby, featuring coastline, moorland and forest.
