Set off from the old railway yards of Robin Hood's Bay and trade village streets for singletrack windswept above the North Sea and the open sweep of the North York Moors. This ride follows the Cinder Track toward Whitby or Ravenscar, with options to thread quieter moorland bridleways—an eight‑hour way to sample both coast and moor in one day.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE ROUTE

Ride the Cinder Track to Whitby or Ravenscar

Choose the converted railway line known as the Cinder Track to make steady, scenic progress along the coastline and toward the seaside towns of Whitby or the headland at Ravenscar.

THE LANDSCAPE

North Yorkshire coast meets open moorland

The route threads exposed coastal ridges and open moorland, offering wide views and the elemental contrast of sea and heathered upland.

THE KIT

A purpose-built kids’ 24‑inch TREK

Ridden on a TREK kids bike with 24‑inch wheels, the outing is tailored to younger riders who need a properly sized machine for a full‑day coastal and moorland ride.

What the day feels like

How the day feels

A full day of motion: leave the meeting point, settle into a steady tempo on the former railway bed of the Cinder Track, and decide whether to continue to the harbour town of Whitby or head to the higher, wind-scoured viewpoints at Ravenscar. Breaks among the moorland bridleways reveal quiet tracks and sudden panoramas—the rhythm is exploratory rather than racing.
