Going west from Beverley to Market Weighton and Pocklington and then as far north as Malton, across to Bridlington in the east and then back to Beverley through Driffield, you'll pass through lots of traditional Yorkshire towns and villages – great for tea and pub stops!

Known as the 'king of the wolds', both Driffield and the ancient market town of Beverley, with its breathtaking Gothic minster and lovingly preserved old streets and stone buildings, lie on lower ground within the arms of the crescent. Home to thousands of seabirds, Bempton's white cliffs are the Wolds rising impressively out of the North Sea. Bridlington's beach-backed promenades are open for cycling and the halls and gardens of Sledmere, Sewerby and Burton Agnes Hall offer great stop off points to relax and explore a touch of history and culture.

The magnificent unspoilt scenery, beautiful ancient market towns, outstanding historic country houses, sweeping coastline and friendly locals, have many visitors returning to the region year after year.

The Yorkshire Wolds Cycleway uses a combination of cycle paths, quiet country roads and some short sections of track.  Most of the surface is tarmac. There is an unavoidable short grassy section which climbs a farm track for approx. 2km (1.25 miles).  This self-guided trip is for a minimum of 2 people and accommodation, luggage transfers and emergency backup are all included. Having access to the navigation app will enable you to do the route self-guided. Nothing could be simpler!
