Newton Dale, Yorkshire

Description

It may be difficult to tear some people away from the station - it's a lovingly restored example of a North Eastern Railway station from around 1912, and well worth some admiration for the effort volunteers have put in here.

The walks start from the station car park, so you may even decide to arrive by train with the North Yorkshire Moors Railway line.

Walks

There is no specific route here, but a wide choice of walk types.

Easy walking is found on the forest tracks (once intended as 'forest drives') which stretch for miles through the plantation.

Alternatives include taking an OS map and striking out for the moorland, which is Access Land.

Wildlife enthusiasts come here to spot rare otters and other small furries, so hounds will need to exercise restraint.

Directions

From Whitby, take the A169 towards Pickering. After passing the Hole of Horcum the road goes down a long straight and through a couple of 'S' bends. Take the turning to Lockton and Levisham on the right. Drive through Lockton and stay on the main road following the sign for Levisham. 

Park in the station car park.
