Until 1912, Roseberry Topping had a smooth, sugarloaf‑like peak. A geological fault combined with underground mining caused a massive collapse, giving the summit its modern jagged profile. The climb up from the car park is steep and can be very busy, even before sunrise in winter where you can see a small procession of torches slowly ascending.

Gribdale Gate is a small, free, 24‑hour Forestry England car park on Dikes Lane near Great Ayton, offering around 40 spaces and direct access to Roseberry Topping, Captain Cook’s Monument, and Coate Moor

Great views and early on a Sunday morning is best to beat the crowds. The obelisk is hollow and originally had a doorway you could walk through, before it was sealed during a 19th‑century restoration. A lightning strike in 1960 almost split the monument down the middle after the lightning conductor installed in 1895 rusted away. Earlier lightning strikes in the 19th century had already blown off the original doorway and obliterated the cast‑iron plaques. Fun fact - allegedly - the monument contains a hidden time capsule. When the foundation stone was laid in 1827, commemorative items were placed inside, including a portrait of Captain Cook and a glass plate etched with details of the event.

Directly in front of the monument, take a stroll about 30-50 paces and you will have some very decent views of the area!

Great for all skills

This is a good section to ride, the last section is a bit tricky. Please be aware of and courteous to the walkers. Enjoy.
