Lyke Wake Walk

A full description of the walk from Osmotherley in the west to Ravenscar in the west. A 40 mile crossing of the North Yorkshire Moors. Qualifying time for membership of the Lyke Wake Club is 24 hours.


Cleveland Way

A good factual guide enhanced by the use of photographs. Worth reading at the route planning stage.


Coast to Coast Walk

A step by step guide to Wainwright's Coast to Coast walk. Split into four sections and well illustrated with photos. It will never replace Wainwright's book but it is well worth a read at the initial planning stage to get a rough idea of the route and terrain etc.


The Dales Way

A good low level walk from Ilkley to the shores of Windermere. This page gives a good explanation of the route and some useful pointers. Well illustrated. There is information to help everyone.


The Three Peaks of Yorkshire

Based on Horton in Ribblesdale this circular walk takes in the sumits of Pen-y- Ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough within a twelve hour time limit. This link provides a good description of the walk and the pubs.


Shepherds Round

This walk was developed as an alternative to the Lyke Wake Walk to try and reduce the number of people using the route and causing erosion. Saying that it is a good route well worth doing in its own right. A description of the route can be found by following the above link. A badge and certificate are available for those completing the walk in 24 hours.


The Hambleton Hobble

Like the previous walk this one was also developed to ease the pressure on the Lyke Wake Walk. Based on the area around Black Hambleton this circular walk is a real challenge and anyone completing within the time limit will have earned their badge.
