Filey Station to Bridlington Station (Yorkshire)
15m direct from Scarborough.
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.
23km.
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.
Lunch: A tea shop near Bempton village and a pub at a coastal housing development en route.
