햄블턴 주변 최고의 교통량 없는 자전거 라이딩 코스

비랜드 수도원은 오늘날 잉글리시 헤리티지에서 관리하는 잉글랜드 노스 요크셔의 노스 요크 무어 국립공원에 위치한 12세기 수도원 유적입니다. 한때 시토회 수도원의 중심지였던 이곳은 영국 초기 고딕 건축의 가장 훌륭한 예 중 하나이며, 요크 민스터의 상징적인 장미 창 디자인에 영감을 준 것으로 유명합니다.

Open at all daylight hours. No charge.

cracking view across the reservoir

Easy parking (ice cream van in summer!) at Sheep Wash, great path through the coniferous wood running along the southern edge of the reservoir, awesome views, cool breeze across the water, option to follow numerous tracks east into the woods around Cote Garth and Golden Square. Lots of familys, dog walkers and hikers - something for everyone here.

Pretty village with an informative website if local history is your thing. Recorded under the name of Cucvalt in the Domesday Book, and the local church is where George Orby Wombwell, the last surviving officer of the Charge of the Light Brigade, is buried.

Unmissable and unfortunately not well served by public footpaths or bridleways, however, the main road has sufficiently wide verges to walk safely along. If you are heading north past the Obelisk Ponds, then there is a fantastic track on the east side of the road which is flanked by lime trees forming a wonderful avenue to walk along (see photos).

Carlton in Cleveland is a lovely, historic village and well worth stopping at. Historically, its name is first mentioned in the Domesday Book in 1086. There is a sense of history here as well as classic English quaintness. On the north end of the village, there is a rather sizeable and imposing St Botolph's Church, completed in Gothic style in 1897. If you need food, consider The Blackwell Ox, which, despite its name perhaps, these days specialises in Thai cuisine.

North of Hob Hole, the road drops down steeply to the ford at Hob Hole, with extraordinary views of Kildale Moor and Westerdale. (Obviously, if you are cycling in the opposite direction, you will have a heft hill to climb!) The ford at Hob Hole can be treacherous and dangerous after rain - there have been a number of vehicle incidents here over the year where people tried to go across and got washed over... use the footbridge to cross if the beck is in spate and/or where water levels are obviously too high. On a happier note, next to the ford, there is a car park area, and the grassy bits there could be easily used for a picnic / food and drink stop to restore your energy on your ride.
