Route for Horse Riders and Cyclists
Riding Route
Thanks to Mary Thew, Bill Tait and the Ryedale bridleways group, we have a draft route for you to follow on horseback.
This riders' route is an interim route and avoids several sections of bridleway which are currently problematic. The route will be subject to revision should additional access options become available. If you are planning to ride the Trail, do check back to ensure you have the most current version of the map and descriptions. Please use the Contact Form on this site if you'd like more help on any aspect of the horse riders' route.

Our grateful thanks to local cyclist John Ellison for adapting and cycling the walking route. Please note- several sections are only suitable for mountain bikes.
