Surveys

We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.

Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.

Help people know more about this route by volunteering to submit a survey.

This route follows the Closca two route along the ‘Cinder Track’ until you are east of Burniston and come to Field Lane ,the second minor road crossing. Following Field Lane to the east will bring you to the English Coastal Path/ Cleveland Way. Heading south, the route follows the clifftop. Could be cycled if adventurous.
The descent from the clifftop at Scalby Mills into Scarborough North Bay is many irregular rough steps (photo). Once you have crossed Scalby Beck to the Sealife Centre, you can walk along the Promenade and soak up the Great British seaside and an Ice cream or burger depending on the season. Alternatively, take the miniature railway to Peasholm Lake & Gardens. From the Gardens you can follow the Slow Ways into Scarborough Town and the Station. Or continue round North Bay and into South Bay. This is Scarborough at its seaside peak.

I walked this from south to north, to the point where the publicised route leaves the coast. It is part of the Cleveland Way along the coast and well signposted but fairly muddy in places. I walked as a single female and it felt safe. It is much better suited to walking than biking.
