Stunning views. A walk of two parts: a steep, exposed coastal cliff path with narrow paths through scrubby woods, field edges and open paths and then an inland section of wide farm tracks and quiet roads with wide verges. A steep staircase up onto the cliffs and very steep ground up to the trig point and Bempton; probably muddy in winter. The RSPB site at Bempton offers superb seabird watching (gannets, razorbills, puffins, fulmars); bring binoculars. Follows the King Charles III England Coast Path along the cliffs.

Coastal: three fifths along the coast.

Time: 6h–12h30

Lunch: A tea shop near Bempton village and a pub at a coastal housing development en route.

Warnings: Part of the path up to the trig point and Bempton cliffs is very steep (100%+), with steps kicked into the turf; in very wet or windy weather it may require a scramble. The route is open to the elements.

An easy-going, flat route, the first part through uncultivated land and fields of cattle on well-marked footpaths, the second part across crop fields with paved sections and road walking. Lots of unpaved, uneven sections and narrow bridges and gates. Can also reach the bus station via Manor Road in Beverley.

Time: 5h30–10h30

Warnings: Many unpaved and uneven sections, narrow bridges to cross and gates affect accessibility.

Coastal: half along the coast.

Time: 1h30–3h

Warnings: Half urban.

Walk details: Railwalks.

A lengthy walk out through Beverley's suburbs to Figham Common, then a riverside path along the River Hull, before following the main Beverley Road into the centre of Hull. Lots of kissing gates and stiles and with a main-road section (with pavement) at Thearne. Passes the only remaining World War 2 bombed-out building in the UK, a former cinema on Beverley Road undergoing restoration.

Time: 4h–8h

Warnings: Follows a busy road for a quarter of the walk.

Walk details: Slow Ways.

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.

Time: 2h30–5h30

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