Having moved to The Yorkshire Moors over the last couple of days it was with some excitement that Mrs R decided a rest day might be appropriate to explore the delights on offer in Scarborough so walking responsibilities (and blog writing) were taken over for the day by myself!

With our friends Lynda and Paul offering to drop off at the start and collect me at the end of the walk I took on the section of Yorkshire path from Bempton to Scarborough. When planning, 16 miles seemed to be the distance, however it was actually nearer 18 miles …. it’s always nice to get a couple of bonus miles! An absolutely wonderful day for walking though, with spectacular views over sea and moors, if you’ve not been here then I hope a few of the pictures give an idea of the beauty.

Whilst admiring the views here it’s very difficult not to draw comparisons with the stunning Cornish coastline. A perhaps unexpected surprise of our coastal walking though is just how wonderful so many parts of our island are and offer so much beauty, in particular here in the North East.

Anyway, we’re nearing the end of our current walking adventures with just a day or two left. Your normal blogger returns very soon, I’ll just leave you with a nice muddy path picture to brighten your day ha ha!
