Ampleforthの天然記念物・トップ19

実際には、素晴らしい景色を楽しめる変化に富んだハイキングです。White Horseへの急な登りのため、やりがいがあります。最後の右折（障害物を乗り越える必要があります）は絶対に避け、代わりにまっすぐ進んでください。番犬が「道」全体に沿って大きな声で吠えながらあなたを追いかけるだけではありません。道は主にアザミと巨大なイラクサで完全に荒れており、2つのゲートを乗り越える必要があります。

Gormire Lake is a natural lowland lake that lies at the foot of Whitestone Cliff, a western escarpment of the Hambleton Hills

following on the trip there is a beautiful downhill forest path

One of only a few such mazes left in the country and the only one in Yorkshire.

Meaning "filthy swamp", there are many local legends and myths surrounding this lake, such as it is bottomless (it is 6.5m deep) and was created by an earthquake that swallowed a village resulting in the lake today (it is a glacial lake).

The public footpath down to the nature reserve from the Cleveland Way (at the location on OS maps marked as "Great Relief Pot") is reasonably steep, but can be very narrow in places with short wooden planks driven into the ground along the downward side of the path, presumably to prevent the path from eroding and collapsing. In other places there are plenty of stones and tree roots to help stabilise your ascent/descent. As you approach Gormire Lake look out for a very curious and quite large boulder that is almost an 8-10 foot high perfect cube. The nature reserve consists of ancient woodland and is very peaceful. Easy to access the water's edge at Gormire Lake.

Large car park under the White Horse, £2.50 all day as at July 2024. Free parking in a smaller off-road car park on Osgodby Bank at the southern end of Hood Hill Plantation. Very steep steps up to the top, but there is a metal handrail that alternates from the left to right side of the steps. Fabulous views from the top, although as others mention, you can only really see and appreciate the horse from the bottom of the bank.

Needs to be viewed from the bottom carpark
