10.4 miles
Explorer Map 306, - Middlesbrough and Hartlepool
You don't really need a map for this walk.
The walk is a "there-and-back" walk. Outwards is keeping
to footpaths between Saltburn and Markse, continuing along the coastal
footpath and promenade to Redcar.
Return is along the promenade at Redcar followed by walking back along
the beach to Saltburn.
Start from the promenade on top of the cliffs above the
pier in Saltburn (NZ66517 21658). Plenty of parking available.
Walk Westwards along the road until you come to some steps leading down
into the valley of Hazel Grove.
Walk up Hazel Grove by following the footpath on the Northern side of
the valley.
This eventually meets up with a broad track that runs parallel to the
railway line. This track is a bridleway to Marske.
When you come to the houses, turn right and continue following first the
street then a very obvious footpath until you come to the cliff edge.
Turn left and follow the top of the cliff to St. Germain's church.
Cross the churchyard and walk towards the coast. Basically continue along
the coast, - on the path above the dunes, until you come to the promenade
in Redcar.
Walk along the promenade in Redcar (2.8 km long!) to the pier.
Return along the promenade, then walk along the beach all the way back
to Saltburn.
