Overview

A linear walk accessed by a short trip on the North Yorks Moors Railway (NYMR) from Pickering to Levisham. Walk from Levisham Station back to Pickering, taking in the scenic countryside and with plentiful views of the railway and its locomotives.

Generally good paths and tracks, with some field paths (muddy after rain), and hard surfaced tracks in the forestry section.
