Sunday walk - 3rd December - Helmsley - 10 am Start

A slightly shorter walk - 7.1 miles - from Helmsley through Hag Wood and returning along part of the Tabular Hills walk.

The plan is to have one drink break  so that we are back in Helmsley in time for lunch at 2.00 PM at the Vinehouse Cafe at Helmsley Walled Garden behind the castle.

Start: 10am prompt - Meeting on the corner where you turn for the Cleveland Way car park off the Stokesley Road. (B1257)

Parking: The most convenient car park is the Cleveland Way Car Park (Fee payable - machines take cards) but feel free to park where you prefer.

Distance: 7.1 Miles

Difficulty: We will be using well marked paths but it is December and it can be muddy. (Probably better to leave the stilettos in the car and change into them at the end) 

Facilities: Toilets in Helmsley

Vinehouse Cafe: They are reserving an area of the cafe for us but it would be nice to be able to give them and idea of numbers so I would appreciate if you could let me know if you are planning to join us for the meal. Non-walkers more than welcome. 

The cafe has a range of offerings on the menu and they will take orders on the day. They have a website if you want more details:- www.vinehousecafehelmsley.co.uk
