Whitby Touring Loop

Starting in Whitby, this is a great introduction to riding in the North York Moors National Park. Starting from the Cinder Track Terminus, you get to experience nice rolling hills and stunning views, but without the steep climbs featured on Whitby's longer road loop.

A highlight on the loop is Larpool Viaduct, also known as the Esk Valley Viaduct, which is a 13-arch brick viaduct built to carry the Scarborough & Whitby Railway over the River Esk, now the route of the Cinder Track. The gentle cycle along the River Esk back to Whitby makes this the perfect afternoon ride after enjoying the buzzing streets of historic Whitby.
