The North York Moors National Park is famed for its vast expanses of heather-clad moorland which, in late summer, light up the landscape in a fiery blanket of vivid pinks and purples. Here, sheep are left to graze amid relics of ancient human habitation, while small hill-farms dot the lower slopes and valleys, divided by miles of dry-stone walls and winding lanes.
What a lovely surprise to reach the delightful village of Levisham, with its pretty green and cosy pub.
     
This walk is an ideal introduction to some of England's wildest countryside, with the accommodation providing a high standard of comfort and cuisine. Walking along wooded riverside paths, green lanes and moorland tracks from one pretty village to the next, you experience the gentle beauty of northern England and the wild grandeur of the moors. The archetypal stone villages you pass through are so characteristic of the area, located in secluded corners where life is played out without fuss, much as it has done for centuries.
