The section
This 68 mile long stretch (not yet officially open) starts in the heart of industrial Middlesbrough at the Newport Bridge and then follows the Teesdale Way to Redcar where it winds down the coast to Saltburn-by-the-Sea before connecting with the Cleveland Way which passes through Whitby and Scarborough before finally arriving at Filey Brigg. The contrasts on this route could not be greater, industrial heritage, seaside towns and the North Yorkshire Moors. I have only planned to walk as far as Saltburn-by-the-sea, a favourite place of mine, especially for an ice-cream on the pier, but have included some brief notes about some of the other places I have visited.

This part of the walk begins at Peasholm Park in the North Bay and winds around the headland with its castle to the harbour, along the seafront of the south bay to the spa finishing at the constellation map at the site of the old outdoor swimming pool. Although this is a relatively short section, it can be combined with one of the Scarborough town walks to explore the town's attractions or of course be combined with other sections of the walk.
