Walking?

Cycling?

4 x 4?

We provide support for the Fifth Gear 4 x 4 by green lanes from St Bees to Robin Hoods Bay. If you want it on Memory Map try speaking nicely to Barbara.

Did this trip with Bren and Barbara and other YORC members, camping for 2 nights (on a separate occasion to Bren's heroic Fifth Gear outing...I think they poshed it and B&B'd that time!)

Can recommend it, it is fun and you see bits of the northern countryside that are less touristy..

There is a gallery of the club outing here... http://www.yorkshireoffroadclub.net/imageg...?album=167 Our blog - http://landytravels.com/

Presume by 'wild camp' you mean you've found a landowner that has given permission for you to camp on a bit of their land for the night? Wild camping without landowner's permission is illegal in England and Wales....

But anyways, hope you have a good time. Thumbs Up Our blog - http://landytravels.com/
