The well-known and well-loved York Harbor Cliff Walk begins at the Hartley Mason park by the York Harbor Beach. The Cliff Walk itself is a half-mile (one way) walk above the rugged coast and below historic homes. The trail is a mix of poured concrete over stone, short stone staircases, and a narrow dirt path, which can be uneven at times. Please be aware that no dogs are allowed on the narrow path, and it's advised to stay on course to avoid trespassing onto private lands and homes.

Running

The York Harbor Cliff Walk is a path etched into the cliffside that features views out onto the water while traveling below some historic houses. The trail, itself, is a mixture of dirt, rock, and pavement with some staircases thrown in for good measure. Don't expect to move very fast when other people are on the path, but this can be a fun speed challenge when you run in the early morning or late evening when crowds are smaller.
