We are the Northallerton Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

This 6 mile walk starts at the ruins of Whorlton Old Church and explores the undulating fields and woodland in Lower Scugdale, Scugdale Beck, Faceby Plantation and Whorl Hill. There is about 300 metres of ascent and descent and there are half a dozen stiles. Part of the route follows the Cleveland Way. There is a mixture of field paths and forest tracks. There are usually good views over the Tees Valley and towards the Pennines.

To get there go through Swainby Village and take the side road past Swainby Church, continuing out of the village up to Whorlton Castle and follow the road to the right until the Old Church is on the right hand side. More spaces are available at the next bend, or back at the castle.
