From Saltburn the walk now hugs the coastline all the way to Filey. Climb up Hunt Cliff and walk along dramatic sections, passing Rock Cliff (the highest point in the east of England). The path then descends to the pretty village of Staithes with its fleet of Cobles (flat hulled fishing boats from Viking origin).

These maps and routes are designed to be used in conjunction with our traditional documentation. We have recently embarked on a conversion initiative to bring the two elements together, and this itinerary will be covered in due course.
In the meantime, using the two elements alongside each other should go a long way to ensure you have a safe, enjoyable and problem free day.
