A cliff top coastal walk round Flamborough, starting from
Sewerby (Bridlington) and following the South Cliff path to Flamborough
Head and returning along the North Cliff Path.
Navigation is very straightforward, using well defined footpaths all
the way.
Where the coastal paths cross valleys that exit to the sea, there are
some steep descents and ascents. However, for the most part, steps are
provided to assist the walker.
At Flamborough Head there are plenty of tourist facilities, including
a car park and toilets.
