Follow the walkway track Westwards for 1 mile. When you come to the finger-post indicating the Tees Link footpath, turn right and head Northwards to cross the A171 main road by the Cross Keys hotel (CARE need to cross the A171).
Continue Northwards and up the hill until you come to where the Tees Link footpath heads left off the path you are on.
Just a few yards past this point, take the footpath on your right.
When you reach a broad track, turn left. Where this track divides, take the right hand fork and continue uphill to Eston Nab.
To descend from the Nab, take the broad and well-used track that descends South Westward.
About 1/4 mile past Carr's Pond (on your right) take the Tees Link footpath on your left. This footpath is not immediately obvious and needs to to watched out for.
