Important information for Coast to Coast users - temporary closure (Grosmont to Hawsker)
Due to the spread of the moorland wildfire in and around Fylingdales Moor, the Coast to Coast walk has been closed temporarily from Grosmont to Hawsker.
Please avoid walking or cycling in the vicinity of the affected area.
Coast to Coast walkers are advised to pick up the Esk Valley Walk at Grosmont, following the leaping salmon waymarkers to Whitby. At Whitby, follow the Cleveland Way to Robin Hood's Bay - though please note that smoke may be affecting this section. Details of the route closure can be seen on the map below 👇
Many road closures are in force, and we would ask that walkers and riders adhere to these closures too.
Further details of all closures can be found on the North Yorkshire Council website 👉 www.northyorks.gov.uk/roadclosures
The situation is changing quickly so if you do intend to walk or cycle anywhere in the east of the North York Moors, it is worth checking our website 👉 www.northyorkmoors.org.uk/
