Hessle Station to Cottingham Station

An urban route with more green space than expected and much of it following a surfaced cycle path. Generally easy going. Follows National Cycle Route 1 for much of the way; bus and rail options at both ends. Easier to follow with a GPX track as the urban setting makes navigation tricky.

Easy: 10km, flat terrain.

Lunch: Plenty of shops along the way in this built-up area.

End-of-walk reward: the Old Lamp Room.

Beverley Station to Cottingham Station

An easy-to-follow rural ramble largely on well-signposted public footpaths through areas of woodland and hedgerows, with a few fields and but not much in the way of views. There are housing developments on the way out of Beverley and a sizeable substation en route. A number of obstacles en route. Plenty of bird life and spring flowers, though the HV power lines and distribution substation somewhat spoil the rural feel.

Easy: 10km, flat terrain.
