New circular walking route opens up park to disabled users
The 5.3m route starting at Sutton Bank National Parl Centre in the North York Moors takes in stunning views from the Cleveland Way National Trail, across the Vale of Mowbray to the distant Yorkshire Dales.
It also takes in some of the Cliff Bike Trail so users can appreciate winding and meandering through the woods and across the fields.

Hide AdNational Trails Officer for the Cleveland Way, Malcolm Hodgson, said: “This is a great day walk which will suit some people who use a wheelchair, mountain trike or a mobility scooter. There is a lot of variety with the Cleveland Way escarpment and the woods at Hambleton Plantation to enjoy. It is a perfect way to enable people to have easier access to the beautiful North York Moors.”
The National Park Authority works closely with a Disabled Access Group to see what can be done to provide access to visitors of all abilities.
