Overview

This walk has all the ingredients for a perfect day out on the Moors (weather permitting!) Plenty of hills including Cold Moor, a distinctive rocky outcrop (the Wainstones) and Round Hill on Urra Moor, the highest point at 1490ft on the Moors. From our starting point at Chop Gate the path climbs steadily to Cold Moor, before joining the Cleveland Way and Coast to Coast route passing the Wainstones, Hasty Bank and then up to Round Hill over Urra Moor. The last 4 miles of this walk are mainly downhill,.

This walk is graded strenuous but we will take our time and enjoy the fine views, walking poles are advised for those who use them as there are some steep ascents and descents.
