North York Moors National Park - Hutton-le-Hole is in the south of the North York Moors National Park and within easy reach of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the North Riding Forest Park. This enormous natural playground is ideal for anyone who enjoys being outside, particularly walkers, climbers, cavers, cyclists and mountain bikers. Whatever the weather or your skillset, there is a path or a trail for you.
The area immediately around Hutton-le-Hole is mainly fields and moorland, and there is a lovely circular route linking the village with neighbouring Lastingham, taking in views from Spaunton Moor and limestone escarpment. The moors are especially attractive in mid to late August when the heather blooms paints the landscape a stunning purple. Nearby footpaths and trails include the Lord Stones Walk and White Horse Walk, and paths take you to picturesque spots like May Beck and Falling Foss.
Yorkshire’s cycling routes are fantastic. Riders come from around Britain and further afield, enjoying sweeping roads and rugged mountain bike trails with breathtaking views. Hutton-le-Hole is close to Dalby Forest where off-road routes include everything from flat, family-friendly loops around the lake, to a four-mile black run used to host a stage of the 2011 Mountain Bike World Cup series. Half an hour in the other direction is Thirsk and the Sutton Bank National Park Centre’s mix of natural and constructed traffic-free trails.
