Urra Moor

Highlight (Segment) • Natural

The vast expanse of Urra Moor is the highest moorland in the North York Moors National Park. As you hike through the rugged and windswept landscape, you will find it an atmospheric, beautiful and very peaceful place to be, especially when the purple heather blooms in the late summer months.

Round Hill Summit (Highest Point of Urra Moor)

Highlight • Summit

Round Hill, at 1,490 feet (454m), marks the highest point in the North York Moors National Park. It is located on the summit of the atmospheric and beautiful Urra Moor.

The views north and south are spectacular, and whilst the summit views don't boast craggy rock faces that are common to this area, the vastness of the surrounding fells provides a real sense of peace.

Fat Betty (White Cross)

Highlight • Monument

This stumpy, white-painted cross is known locally as Fat Betty. She's one of many moorland crosses and standing stones dotted about the North York Moors, including the nearby Young Ralph Cross, an emblem of the national park. Used as ancient waymarkers and believed to ward off evil spirits, the crosses were an important landmark for travellers in days gone by.

Fat Betty is a carved piece of roughly square shaped rock with a rounded head. Like nearby Young Ralph, the cross has folk tales associated with it.
