The Cleveland Way is a 109-mile walking route
through Cleveland in Northern England. Starting from the castle carpark in Helmsley, the first part of
the walk leads to Rievaulx, then on to a village called Cold Kirby and is 7
miles in total. It’s usually well signposted so you shouldn’t be able to
get lost along the way.
Once you arrive at the bridge in Rievaulx, a
short detour from the Cleveland Way will take you through the picturesque
village from where you can see Rievaulx Abbey.
Crossing over the bridge, you
just follow the road until you reach a signpost on the right pointing to Cold
Kirby 2 miles away. This track takes you through the woodland past 3 lakes
which are home to a few geese and ducks.
