The Centenary Way

Posted on 1st October 202012th October 2020 by Michael

The Centenary Way was opened in 1989 and was devised to celebrate the 100th anniversary of North Yorkshire County Council. The walk goes from York to the seaside town of Filey. The route crosses the Howardian Hills via Castle Howard and the Yorkshire Wolds via Wharram Percy. It links the Foss Walk in York with the Yorkshire Wolds Way and joins up with the Cleveland Way at Filey. It follows two rivers, the Derwent and Foss. The Wolds Way shares a lengthy section of the walk between Malton and Filey.

This is the last section of the walk, finishing on Filey Brigg. It’s an easy walk of just under 4 miles. The route crosses farmland and then through holiday parks on the outskirts of Filey.

The Cleveland Way – Scarborough to Filey

The route follows a clifftop path all the way to Filey Brigg. It’s possible to divert down to Cornelian Bay and Cayton Bay if you fancy some time on the beach. For much of the route, the path is very close to the edge of the cliffs. This the final (or first) section of the Cleveland Way and is a relatively easy walk with some beautiful coastal scenery.

If you have a dog, Filey Bay is a great place to walk him or her. Much of the Bay has a large, sandy beach. The full bay stretches from Filey Brigg at the northern end through Filey town, Primrose Valley and Hunmanby Gap.
