Clain Wood is an attractive woodland bursting with seasonal colours. In the springtime, you're afforded a seasonal display of blooming bluebells, and in the autumn, the most wonderful display of orange/yellow leaves.

It's situated on the north-western edge of the North York Moors near Swainby.

Very easy track to follow through mixed woodland. My photos taken at 5.30am on a sunny May morning, with sunlight streaming in through the trees at a low angle. Definitely worth a visit and a great route to take to get up on to Live Moor.

Clain Forest is a very pretty place. In the summer, the gorgeous bluebells, in the autumn, at the right time of the year, the orange/yellow spectacle as though out of some kind of Impressionist painting. Worth stopping by: a very beautiful place.
