Our drawing of the route, over road and path data from OpenStreetMap. It shows where the walk goes and what it goes through. It is not a survey and not a navigation aid — carry OS Explorer on the hill. Off-lead information here is what walkers reported or what signage allows — never our advice. Whether and when a dog is off the lead is the owner’s decision and legal responsibility; keep dogs under control near livestock and follow signs on the day.

Directions to the start →

A 5-mile circular of about two hours on hard surfaces throughout, out along the North Bay promenade from Peasholm to Scalby Mills, back beneath the castle cliff on Marine Drive to the harbour and up through the old town, with only 80 metres of climbing. Start at Peasholm Park, which has pay-and-display parking and an open-air theatre, about a mile from Scarborough station. The central North Bay beach bans dogs in summer, Marine Drive throws the sea clean over the wall in an easterly and carries traffic, but the northern end of the sands towards Scalby Mills is open to dogs all year and the beck there is a good rinse-off.

THE SMALL PRINTThe central section of Scarborough North Bay beach, from the slipway at the Sands, the old Corner Cafe, to the slipway at the far end of the chalets, is closed to dogs from 1 May to 30 September under North Yorkshire Council's dog control order, with a £100 fixed penalty. Between those dates use the northern end of the sands towards Scalby Mills or the beach beyond the chalets, both open to dogs all year.
