The Yorkshire Wolds Cycle route is a circular ride of more than 140 miles that takes in the beautiful scenery and the dramatic coastline of the Yorkshire Wolds, a landscape that inspired David Hockney's Woldgate. Taking in grand country houses, nature reserves, historic priories, and some of the region’s most fascinating landmarks, combined with rolling hills, hidden valleys and peaceful villages, the Yorkshire Wolds is the perfect place to cycle and unwind.
Going west from Beverley to Market Weighton and Pocklington and then as far north as Malton, across to Bridlington in the east and then back through Driffield, you'll pass through lots of traditional Yorkshire towns and villages – great for tea and pub stops!
Known as the 'king of the wolds', both Driffield and the ancient market town of Beverley, with its breathtaking Gothic minster and lovingly preserved old streets and stone buildings, lie on lower ground within the arms of the crescent. Home to thousands of seabirds, Bempton's white cliffs are the Wolds rising impressively out of the North Sea. Bridlington's beach backed promenades are open for cycling and the halls and gardens of Sledmere, Sewerby and Burton Agnes Hall offer great stop off points to relax and explore a touch of history and culture.
The magnificent unspoiled scenery, beautiful ancient market towns, outstanding historic country houses, sweeping coastline and friendly locals, have many visitors returning to the region year after year.
