Cloughton’s three Slow Ways are 67% checked
Help connect Cloughton
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of Cloughton’s Slow Ways.

The walk out of Cloughton is on The Cinder Track, an inland route following the former Scarborough to Whitby railway line....

This 21.7 mile walking route follows the former Scarborough to Whitby railway line, via Cloughton and Robin Hood's Bay (see Slow Ways Whirob and Robclo for the other two sections)....
Martin Ellis
This is a fairly straightforward walk which partly follows the Cleveland Way/England Coast Path, and partly the Cinder Track - the former railway line between Scarborough and Whitby. Before Long Nab, the Slow Ways route then tuns inland along a paved path (signposted to Burniston) to Field Lane, and then along The Cinder Track, skirting Burniston, to Cloughton....

This is a very straightforward route which is excellent for those who are not able to walk between Scarborough and Cloughton using the Cleveland Way which has some steep steps and therefore not easy for those who are less than steady on their feet. This is a route used by cyclists who sometimes pass a walker at speed which is rather unnerving. Unlike the Cleveland Way route, there are no sea views....
Philip Painter
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. Heading south, the route follows the clifftop....

The from Cloughton village soon turns south onto the Cinder Track - NCR1 or EV1. The end of the Cinder Track in Scarborough is near to Sainsbury’s then you are on side streets until you arrive at Scarborough Station....

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....

Join the Cinder Track from the Old Station in Robin Hood’s Bay. After the road crossing to Boggle Hole, the track has some very large potholes. Just before you get to Old Brick Works on the western side of track there is a very steep incline in excess of 1 in 2 (28 degrees). You restart the Cinder Track and continue southwards past the WW2 radar Station on the cliff top....

Excellent bus service Saltburn all the way through to Scarborough, via Skinningrove, Staithes, Sandsend, Whitby, and RHB for exploration, lazy days and rainy days....

Stearsb added Closca two, a new walk from Cloughton to Scarborough
Walk this routeIt's an old railway track so it doesn't have any really steep parts but it isn't flat and it is rough in places. It's popular with walkers, dog walker and cyclists but its a good track and I had no problems....
