The Yorkshire Wolds Way travels through a tranquil corner of England that has remained largely unchanged for centuries. This landscape of softly rounded chalk hills and flower-filled hedgerows is alive with butterflies, birds, and villages nestled in wooded dells.
Between England’s most famous deserted medieval village at Wharram Percy, views across the Humber Bridge to the towers of Lincoln Cathedral, and the quaint seaside resort of Filey, there’s plenty to catch your attention on this remote, peaceful walking holiday, one of the shortest National Trails.
Crossing the Yorkshire countryside from the foot of the Humber Bridge to the crumbling cliffs of Filey.
Visiting Yorkshire pubs for a well-earned taste of local ale, including the Wold Top Brewery, which sits on the trail near Hunmanby.
Catching a glimpse of the looming North York Moors over the Vale of Pickering.

“Taxi transfers worked very well, always on time and easy to contact, very helpful.”Mrs Bloomfield, UK
“Well organised. Very signposted, gentle walk in very pleasant countryside.”Mr Robinson, UK
“Can`t fault Contours, despite late changes all went smoothly. Already have recommended this holiday with Contours with a number of people.”Mr Baldwin, UK
“Good weather, lovely scenery and paths, niggles in taxi arrangements but overall a lovely holiday. Lovely gentle rolling wolds, very well signed, quiet.”Dr Chatfield, UK
“I was pleasantly surprised by the walk; I grew up in West Yorkshire but had no knowledge of this area. The time spent walking each day was ideal. The scenery was lovely and the people were very friendly. We enjoyed very good weather - not a drop of rain on any of the days. The ground was very muddy for the first two-three days and this made it very slippy at times. Some of the paths are shared with horses and bicycles and they had churned up the ground. We had a very good holiday indeed - the taxis and luggage transfers all worked very well. The taxis were very flexible.”Mr Bakes, UK
“Was wonderful, exceeded my expectations. Excellent pre trip communications and support. Very happy with travel pack and accommodation. Excellent value for money.”Ms Glenn, Australia
“I enjoyed every step of the way.”Ms Cressey, UK
“I loved it. A new part of Yorkshire for me and I thought it was beautiful. The way-marking on this route is so good you would have to try quite hard to get lost! I have now been booking with Contours most years since about 2000 and I have always had good service. I tell other walkers I meet how good it is.”Dr Bailey, UK
“An interesting & generally quite varied route, different from what I'd normally choose to walk, well way marked, mostly excellent accommodation. Possibly the best waymarked route I've walked.”Mrs Jackson, UK
