Hikers on the 'Inn Way' will enjoy 89 miles of the finest scenery on offer in the North York Moors.

Following a circuit route; and starting and finishing in Helmsley, the walk comprises six day's of walking with overnight stops in pretty villages; with each stage averaging around 14-miles of walking.

And each overnight stop allows for a visit to watering holes of repute - hence the name - "Inn Way".

The North York Moors and the Inn Way are Iconic for Walkers.

The walk can be completed all in one go over 6-8 days; or completed as individual day-walks over several weekends.

When end-to-ending, it's a good idea to have a rest day by spending a couple of nights in Rosedale Abbey which lies around the half-way point of the walk.

And a weekend or mid-week break in Rosella Cottage in Rosedale Abbey makes an ideal luxurious resting place!
