Walking & Night Navigation Using The Stars - Robin Hood's Bay

30th Oct 2026 16:30

For when the winter sun goes down and the darkness is upon us we feel compelled to retreat within the safety of our homes; closing out the nocturnal countryside instead of embracing in its enchantment. And yet, for the select few willing to break the taboo, the dark skies are a magical world.


Walk Yorkshire welcomes you to a 4/5 mile coastal walk that starts and finishes at Robin Hood's Bay, famous for its smuggling community in the 18th century. With countless tales of thieves, rogues and smugglers, this makes for one of the most intriguing walking locations within the North York Moors.

For this walk, the group will follow the old railway line towards Whitby before heading back to Robin Hood's Bay along the Cleveland Way, with thunderous waves below and amazing dark skies above, experience this beautiful section of the Yorkshire Heritage Coastline.

The group will meet at 4:30pm at Station Car Park before heading on the walk. When night time falls you will learn how to use the stars for navigation.

Tickets: £30
