Hello and welcome back to my blog 😊.

It was a chilly start as Angela and I set off to park the cars at the start and end of todays walk – our final leg of the Yorkshire Wolds Way. I parked my car at the Filey Brigg Country Car Park (for an astronomic fee) and then Angela drove us to Folkton- the start for todays leg.

We had a 2-mile, uphill, walk to reach the Yorkshire Wolds Way path where we had finished on the previous leg. We passed a field where the potato crop was being harvested which was interesting to see.

It was a lovely blue sky morning, although the grass was sodden following yesterdays rain.

We spotted one of the special Wolds Way wooden benches and stopped for a break overlooking Camp Dale.

After a cuppa we continued along Camp Dale and then dropped into Stocking Dale- a dale full of trees, wild bushes and bird song.

Leaving Stocking Dale we started walking adjacent to agricultural fields and in the distance we could see the sea – our first glimpse.

Our route took us through the village of Muston and soon we arrived into the outskirts of Filey. As we made our way towards the seafront we passed a model steam train adjacent to the railway station. The train commemorates the arrival of the railway which transformed Filey from a small, but important fishing village, to a major east coast seaside resort.

We arrived onto the promenade and treated ourselves to a coffee.

I had never been to Filey before and it struck me as an unspoilt seaside town. The beach was sandy and quiet.

We walked along the promenade, passing an impressive statue of a fisherman, and then had some ups and downs along the cliff path to Filey Brigg- the end of the walk. There were lovely views along the way.

A large stone marks the finish of the Yorkshire Wolds Way.

Being close to Filey Brigg, we decided to take a stroll along the Brigg where we again enjoyed nice views looking back towards Filey.

Along the Brigg we found an impressive stone bench so we stopped for lunch and took in the views.

We both had thoroughly enjoyed walking The Yorkshire Wolds Way and would highly recommend it. So many beautiful views along the way and, surprisingly, not at all busy with walkers.

Happy Walking 😊🚶
