5.0 miles.

This walk was basically taken from the Book "Walking St. Hilda's Way" by Nancy and John Eckersley.
We added about 1/2 mile to the described route by visiting the Sutcliffe Gallery in the town, and wandering in Pannett Park.
Although the walk described in the above book is straightforward, the only difficulty worth noting is that quite a number of steps are involved, - climbing both up and down.

Some new mapping software is now available which you may want to try, - QUO mapping. You can download the software for free from the link below, complete with demonstration maps. Having installed QUO, you can import and export Memory Map overlays. Thus YOU DON'T NEED Memory Map to use any of the overlays provided on the Grey Panthers web site, - just use QUO!!

The route followed is well described in "Walking St. Hilda's Way" by Nancy and John Eckersley, published by the Mulgrave Community Research Project (ISBN 978-0-9567890-2-0).

The copy of the book used by us was purchased in St. Mary's Church, Whitby.
