It was during lockdown i decided that wild camping The Cleveland Way would be the first thing I would tick off this years bucket list as soon as restrictions were lifted, so April 12th I made my way up north to Helmsley to begin hiking 110 miles across the north Yorkshire moors and down the east coast.
I did my first long distance national trail last year, hiking and wild camping The west Highland way and I had loved every minute so couldnt wait to get back on a trail again. We caught the train to York, then grabbed the 31X bus straight to Helmsley where we began hiking the Cleveland way early monday morning.
I really hope you enjoy watching my adventure along the trail, in part 1 we travel from the starting point to Slapewath which is almost halfway, I have tried my best to include some information you might find useful... possible locations to wild camp on the Cleveland way, pub stops on the trail, letting you know if certain cafes are closed due to lockdown and where you can fill up your water and snack supplies.
Please don't forget to drop me a comment, I love hearing from you all, if you are planning on hiking any UK national trails orlong distance hiking trail UK this year let me know! Also if you enjoy wild camping UK and you find any beautiful wild camping locations that I may enjoy .. drop me a comment.
Today is Friday 23rd April 2021.. just four days after getting home from Yorkshire, I am now off to the Lake District to wild camp the Cumbria way! So make sure you subscribe to Drunk On Wanderlust to keep up with all my hiking and camping adventures this year.
The tent I used on this trail was a Salewa Litetrek 2, I am also testing out some brand new hiking boots - Keen Targhee 3 which I will do a review on in a few weeks after Ive clocked up some more miles :-)
