A Walk to the Wain Stones and Hasty Bank

A 13km walk in the Cleveland Hills to the sandstone crags of the Wainstones  in the North York Moors National Park. It starts from Chop Gate, and a walk over Cold Moor before joining the Cleveland Way across to the Wain Stones. The route then returns to the start by skirting Urra Moor.

The route follows moorland tracks through the heather on Cold Moor and Urra Moor and, although these are clearly defined, the going can be wet and boggy in parts. – North York Moors National Park
