A Walkers Tale

The Esk Valley Walk is a relatively minor trail that follows the pretty Esk Valley through the North Yorkshire Moors - and one of it's appeals is that it's easy to access and walk.  The route travels along the same valley as the Esk Valley Railway line, which is a rural train service with frequent stops on it's journey from Middlesbrough to Whitby, although only limited services running throughout the day.

For this walk I will be following the route of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway out of Grosmont round to Goathland - where filming has been done for series like Heartbeat and films such as Harry Potter. Then I will head back and continue on round to Lealholm using the Esk Valley Walk .
