Cleveland Way Stage 1, Helmsley to Sutton Bank

Last year we embarked on the challenge of completing every section of The Cleveland Way during the bright summer months. Over the course of the next 18 weeks let us brighten up those gloomy winter nights with fortnightly instalments of this 9 day hike. Aside from taking you back to the glorious English Summer this series has been six months in the making and will hopefully become the definitive way to complete The Cleveland Way. Wether you are planning to do it all in one camping and getting accommodation along the route or tackling it one day at a time we have the answers! Everything from the obligatory free parking, public transport possibilities and opportunities for accommodation, be it camping or otherwise is covered in this series.
Hiking the Cleveland Way is an unforgettable experience that offers so much more than just a simple walk in the great outdoors. It is a journey through stunning landscapes, rich history and culture, and a chance to connect with nature and yourself. Here are just a few reasons why someone might want to hike the Cleveland Way enthusiastically:
Scenic Beauty: The Cleveland Way is a trail that showcases the best of the North York Moors National Park, with rolling hills, rugged moorlands, and breathtaking coastal views. You will be surrounded by nature and wildlife, with the chance to see rare birds, wildflowers, and unique geological formations.
Cultural Experience: The Cleveland Way takes you through charming villages, historic market towns, and ancient landmarks, giving you the chance to immerse yourself in the local culture and history. Whether you are interested in learning about the area's heritage, or simply want to enjoy a traditional pub meal, the Cleveland Way offers a rich cultural experience.
Physical Challenge: The Cleveland Way is a challenging trail that will test your endurance and stamina, but the reward is worth it. With a mix of steep climbs, rocky paths, and gentle rolling hills, this trail will push you to your limits and help you build a sense of accomplishment.
Mental Health Benefits: Hiking the Cleveland Way is a great way to disconnect from the stresses of everyday life and reconnect with yourself. With its peaceful surroundings and tranquil atmosphere, you can enjoy a sense of tranquility and calmness that only comes from being in the great outdoors.
So why wait? Pack your hiking boots and get ready for an unforgettable journey along the Cleveland Way!
Stage 2, Sutton Bank to Osmotherley airs on the 27th of January 2023. Stay tuned!

Good evening Nick & Jill and I’m somewhat disappointed that I watched the countdown at 19.58. and felt certain I’d be the first to watch and comment. Imagine my disappointment to find 32 people had not only watched, liked and commented before me! This was not only impossible but bloody cheating in my book!Then I realised, stupid me, that you’d given family and friends first rights to this! I have to say this is really not playing the KZbin game, in fact I’m seriously tempted to inform Google of your nepotism. That aside I’ll try through my anger to give a positive reply. My first comment is right at the beginning where Nick is certainly in need of a man bra. Also I thought the weather for January looked rather summery. However, the bridge twirl was truly beautiful. Yes the traffic on the roads is becoming a bloody problem, everyone driving a car should be made to pay £5000 a year tax! You then went through a gate but didn’t shut it properly! That goes against all of the countryside codes! However, the the gate of the week was OK but I thought the sixteen others were far better. Apart from all of the above comments I thought this a great film and I certainly enjoyed it all. In fact I’m going to give it FIVE STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Please don’t think I’m going soft, I’ll be judging your next stage very harshly indeed! 😂🤣🥲😅

[@GENerationXplorers]

yeah its a crazy time slot Mike. its a hot premiere time. not so much friends and family but great you-tubers. they are all keen to land that comment which is very helpful in our growth. nobody gets to see or start the video before 8:03pm on a Friday and then its all bets are off! 😂 definitely in need of a man bra, i’ll be ordering the next Nictoria Secrets Catalog as we speak, hopefully something in there that can present my moobs in a more pleasing fashion. Yes £5000 road tax is the answer. then the roads will just be full of rich you know whats that wont understand thats a problem for the rest of us! lots of gates on that section. we forgot to record a gate of the week, doh, i had to overlay audio from another gate on that one and the audio sounded truly horrible. our secrets out. less gates and better audio for the next 8 segments i promise! please judge the next one harshly, the next two instillments knock it out of the park. putting the final touches to day 4 before throwing myself into the lovely collab with mine and yours collaborator, is that a word? it is now. the lovely Alan Metalman. have an awesome weekend and i’ll be starting my Saturday night with my very favourite treat that is the rantaway. and its only 3 or 4 weeks away, our Billygoat production, rant on Ascona, terrible name, lots of rants, is inbound. ive been dreaming about the thumbnail for 3 months! 👍

We’re just catching up now. Sorry we missed the premiere it’s been a pretty shocking day!! Amazing views, this looks like a gorgeous walk. Loved the river and stone bridge. Bet you were glad to get off that road. Very elegant stream crossing Jill! The Heather looks lovely. Those were lovely views at the end. Bad times they hadn’t trimmed their hedges!! Great info at the end. Cheers guys. Another great Vlog 🍻

[@GENerationXplorers]

thank you so much guys, sorry about your day, thats sad to hear. we are also playing catch up massively on pretty much everything but thats because ive taken two weeks off doing accounts and invoicing and four days off to get a square eyed three video series sat there. dont know how i’ll do the next six parts, but once we’ve caught up with everything else they are coming! was the worst part of the cleveland way to be fair. also the first part we tried. when we had to return along the 11 mile route jill was really cursing me at the 15 mile point and i think has been cursing me ever since. i cant mention the cleveland way or any other long distance path ever again without fear of being killed on the spot. this is a real labour of love. or is it hate? im not sure, but this hike tested us to the limits in almost every way imaginable! 😂😂 but looking at the lovely summery footage now and how it still fits our growing channel im happy with what ive seen before. hopefully it will be the blessing that was such an annoyance to do when we started it six months ago! hope you have an amazing weekend, sending all our love ♥️ 🍻

This was such a lovely hike that you did. The Cleveland Way sounds great especially as it ends up in beautiful Filey. This looked great though especially as it started with that monument showing the start of the Cleveland Way but also has Helmsley Castle, a 12th Century Abbey and an 18th Century Tuscan Temple . So you've got history and beauty there ! Shame about the noisy and fast cars though but the views along the way were amazing and I especially loved where you walked through the heather. We have never done any mountains or hills in England so this series will be sooo interesting to watch ! Really enjoyed this 😃 👍

I've been looking forward to your walk along the Cleveland Way. It didn't disappoint 👌.. I'd definitely do it again.

Thanks for jogging my memory and for sharing your first section of the Cleveland Way 👍 Cheers Alistair 👍

[@GENerationXplorers]

Ah that sounds nice. There is still an honesty shop in the centre of Pickering. it really blows my mind, nice to see that such things can prevail in modern society. having done many a walk from Helmsley there is a far better way to get from Rievaulx Bridge to Cold Kirby that requires no road, its a mystery to me why The Cleveland Way opted for the roadwork at that section. id probably do it again but id always avoid that nasty road. Hope you are keeping well and we are looking forward to your next instalment! 👍

[@WainwrightWalksWiaLocalLad]

@@GENerationXplorers That sounds much better avoiding the road 👍 Looking forward to the next instalment.

A cracking first section of this icon path Nick (shame there are lots of road sections (with the traffic 🥹)) But near the less in between some super countryside nice bridge twirl Jill 😊👍 Eager for section two 😊🙏🏼 Best wishes Simon 😊

[@GENerationXplorers]

thanks Simon, its sheer laziness on the part of The Cleveland Way designers part that there are road sections at all, i could easily avoid them by walking in the adjacent fields and hills where there is a lovely right of way that starts at Rievaulx Bridge and picks up the trail again at Cold Kirby. I certainly won’t be walking on that road section again! the trail improves very quickly im happy to say and there are some truly magnificent sections ahead! hope your having an awesome weekend. All the very best Nick and Jill ♥️ 🥾

New friend here. Amazing tour video. Happy New Year 2023.

I thought I'd best start off with the first one in the series and watch them in order rather than the latest video. It was nice to be reminded of what summer looks like. Shame you couldn't see much of the Abbey from the route. The lakes looked very photogenic along with the bridge. Great vlog and a nice route (apart from the road sections).

Hi Andy, thanks! Stage 3, which is my favourite section, features the Lordstones Country Park where we had our meet up on Sunday. A very different place in the summer and autumn. Will be a great place for you to return to for some dramatic photography! 👍

Thanks Isabel👍 hope you had a great week! have a fantastic weekend my friend ❤️

[@angleseyisle]

running up them stairs looks like hard work . Bet you were glad to get off that road! Quite a trek that!

[@GENerationXplorers]

it really was tiresome this first stage and then some! Nick keeps saying ‘Cleveland way’ to me and I didn’t realise I had such a snarl 🤭😂 it was enjoyable but a chore at the same time if that’s possible! ❤️

Low 20s in about my max, anything about that and I am knackered, especially with all those steps. Not keen on the road walking but loved the man made lakes for attacking wildlife, cows are the exception mind. Lots of gates on this walk 😳 and that A170 did indeed look very peaceful and tranquil😖. When we were kids my dad would always stop at Sutton Bank on the way to Flamingoland (as I was always travel sick) and while me and my brother would marvel at the views my mother always used to pick some (lucky) heather for the front grill of the car - that must have been about 55 years ago now🥺. A nice view to finish with but a hefty taxi raid to get back to the car 🥴, cheers Alan

[@GENerationXplorers]

Great memories Alan, we do love Sutton Bank, its one of our goto places for an amazing circular that we also do several times a year to catch it in all weathers and seasons. The road work was horrendous, definitely not fit for walking on as there is barely enough room for cars to get down, yeah we did the entire route there and back, although on one of our segments we do opt for the taxi at that price and thought it was worth every penny to save our legs on that day! 😂 the bus link is close to useless, running late in the day, once on a saturday and sunday, summertime only. To benefit from it you would have to do the route in reverse, which the bus operator tried to convince me i should do! Got one bit of editing to finish up stage 4 then i’ll get to see the footage from the awesome “Grey Lady” collab! Have an awesome weekend! 👍

[@waterfallmadman]

Let’s see: one bridge twirl, one set of stepping stones to jump across, and 186 gates. Awesome!

[@GENerationXplorers]

Shh, we cant let anyone else know the formula! 😂 🐻

[@Thorkenn]

Apologies that I can’t be on your premier. Awesome 👏🏻 and lovely walked 👍. 1:32 that’s cool castle 🏰. Perfect view super relaxing as well. 2:20 agree super incredible views. 8:11 love ❤️ this views 👍. Thank you 🙏🏻 both of you for sharing again a very relaxing and cool walk. Have a nice weekend 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

[@GENerationXplorers]

Thanks for watching Kenn, never apologise for not making the premier, you comments are always fabulous! Have a nice weekend friend! 👍

[@no_soy_rubio]

Looking forward to this, can't join the premiere as I'll be working but will catch it asap 😎

[@GENerationXplorers]

Thanks Matt, don’t work too hard 👍

[@NBNatureTrailvan]

Nice one guys. Just catching up. Looks a good walk but can’t understand why you have to road walk for a bit. Apart from that a really cool adventure. We were supposed to be up in Staithes at the start of Jan but other events took over. Will be catching up on the rest asap. 👍👍👍

[@GENerationXplorers]

Hi there Dave, great hearing from you, hope you and Sue are well. yes the road work is annoying and could easily be avoided by using a path that runs in an adjacent field. perhaps there wasn’t a path in the field when the route was created although that seems unlikely! Have an awesome week! Nick and Jill

[@kreator673]

Excellent video 😊 Like it very much 👍 Greetings

[@GENerationXplorers]

Thank you! Cheers! 🤗

[@no_soy_rubio]

Top effort to still twirl and swoop on a long-distance hike! Looked like a nice gentle start (in terms of elevation, not distance) to the Cleveland Way, looking forward to the rest 😎 ps I hate road walking too!

[@GENerationXplorers]

it was a long day mind, had to do the entire route, there and back. definitely a year where we try our hand at wild camping, there was some great spots just before you arrive at Sutton Bank visitor centre. real camping and accommodation available at the end of stage 2 so could have gone there the next day and freshened up and recharged all the equipment there. that road is an absolute nightmare, not enough room for one vehicle let along two or people. hope your having a great weekend. see you on the big screen tonight 👍
