I explored the walking haunts of East Yorkshire during the three years I spent living in Beverley. Naturally I concentrated on the Yorkshire Wolds for apart from coastal walks there seemed little more of any real interest. However, when I made the effort to search around and discover more about this quiet part of England I found there were lots of good walks just waiting to be found. Even in the suburbia of Hull I discovered some excellent walks. I believe I have covered some of the best walking in East Yorkshire on these pages. If you live in East Yorkshire, or even just visiting, you may find one or two of the walks described on these pages to your liking. Go on, take a walk. You will be pleasantly surprised. Oh, and if you have a gem of your own please let me know and I will add it to the resource.

The return journey was at high level (high for East Yorkshire, that is) with good views of the rolling countryside in all directions. The last section back to the start involved about 10 minutes walking along the road side, a minor sacrifice bearing in mind the otherwise excellent paths on this walk

The walking trail passes through some of the most historic and beautiful parts of the country, and although not as physically demanding as many British long-distance footpaths, it does present a real challenge. While it sticks pretty close to the Prime Meridian, the designers of the trail have allowed it to deviate enough to take in interesting sights and beautiful views where they are available.
The scheme is a series of free guided walks for all ages and abilities aimed at anyone who has an interest in walking or wants to slowly introduce exercise into their daily routine as part of rehabilitation from illness, injury or to get fit. We offer a range of walks starting from 30 minutes to 2 hours. The most important thing is that you start where you are at and gradually build up to the longer walks.
Across the road is the bank of the River Hull and an opportunity to walk all the way to the River Hull and Driffield the other way. After two miles walking it was time to turn around and walk along the road back to Tickton passing the Council tip on the right and on the left is the Lock-keepers cottage at the entrance to Beverley beck.
You can walk the Trail at any time of year. May and September are the most popular months, with fabulous walking weather. If you want a chance to see the vibrant poppy fields you need to come in June and early July.
We have a Walks Secretary who aims to ensure that we have a full programme and liaises with members who are thinking about leading a walk. Walk Leaders are volunteers, without whom there would be no walks programme, so expressions of interest in becoming a future Walk Leader are always welcome. Walk Leaders are ultimately responsible for planning and recceing the route, determining break times and locations. They also ensure that the group follows the agreed route, walks at an appropriate pace and does so in a safe and enjoyable manner. If you are able to lead a walk, then please get in touch with the Walks Secretary by email to eastyorks...@ldwa.org.uk
We have pulled together all of the best walking, running and cycling routes as well as events, places to visit, stay and local guides in Yorkshire Wolds, East Riding of Yorkshire to help you get outside today.
"Nordic Walking is an enhanced, low-impact walking technique that uses special poles to work your upper body as well as your legs. It gives you a highly effective all-over workout that burns around 20% more calories and uses up to 90% of the body's muscles compared to walking without poles. Nordic Walking is a fun and social activity that is great for helping people of all ages get fitter and stronger and for improving general physical and mental health and well-being," said Mrs Mackenzie.
Although Nordic Walking has featured in previous Walking East Yorkshire Festivals, this is the first British Nordic Walking workshop. The free session starts at 1.45 pm and finishes at 3.30 pm and poles are provided. Booking is essential by calling Louise Mukerjea on 07957 590189 or emailing jlsnordi...@gmail.com. The meeting place is where Westwood Road meets Walkington Road: HU17 8EL.
The Yorkshire Wolds Way is a 79-mile walking route through the Yorkshire Wolds' chalk terrain. The National Trail passes through some of England's most peaceful and lovely scenery. The route ascends slowly from the shores of the great Humber estuary, up forested slopes and through quiet dry valleys, to the high heights of the rolling hills. The final portion of the Way descends from the northern escarpment to the picturesque headland of Filey Brigg.
This walk takes you on a circular walk around Flamborough, a village in Yorkshires East Riding. It is well-known as a seabird nesting location, and as Yorkshire's most easterly point, it is also a fantastic place to watch migratory birds. Flamborough Head is a Local Nature Reserve and a Site of Special Scientific Interest. The hike includes a mini-tour of one of Britain's most beautiful chalk cliff regions. If you enjoy coastal walks with beautiful scenery and lighthouses and want your dog to get some exercise, this is the route for you.
The Hudson Way is a 10-mile walking and cycling path in Yorkshire's East Riding. Between Market Weighton and Beverley, the path follows a decommissioned railway line. The route follows the York to Beverley Line, which opened in 1865 and was eventually joined to the Hull to Scarborough Line at Beverley Junction to give a direct connection between York and Kingston upon Hull. The route is named after George Hudson, a railway engineer who built the first section of the line between York and Market Weighton.
Northcliffe woods is a beautiful forest nature reserve with plenty of animals. A lavender veil of bluebells extends out beneath the vivid green leaves of the birch in the spring, making this the perfect tranquil location for a walk. This woods, which is located on flat terrain on the eastern side of the Vale of York, has a diverse structure that includes wet and dry mixed broadleaved woodland, a small reedbed, and regenerated lowland heath. Not to mention the bluebells!
