Great Cycleways II


My favorit cycleway: bike tourist, who are staying in Whitby are being asked to ride this route to Robin Hood Bay - the former railway, known in the old times as the most lovily trainroute all over Britain. Standing on the bridge crossing the Esk 1 understands how romantic things can become, if constructed by english engineers. Please find Cathedral, St. Mary and Northsea in the distance. I understand this cycleway is part of North Sea Cycle Route.

As always the nice things are hard to search for: Whitby townmap might not give you a clue how to enter the cycleway. So please let me give you a hint. Cycleway starts at the former station to Robin's Bay, which does not longer exist. Station were near todays Whitby Mainstation, or somewhere here, or round the corner, who can remember I donnot know. Cycleway climbs up steedily onto the hills and the Esk bridge.
