Magical Robin Hood's Bay Dark Skies Experience

Steeped in smuggling history, the North York Moors coastline is soaked in the stuff of legend. Standing on the shore looking out to sea, you'll be greeted by an inky darkness. In the swirling mist or moonlight you can almost imagine times gone by.
Meanwhile you'll hear the rhythmical sound of waves on the shore, smell salty sea air and feel the breeze against your skin. It's refreshing, rejuvenating and massively up-lifting.
This is because walking at night is a wonderful mood booster. Watch how your primary sense takes a back seat while all your other senses come alive. Weave in a secret, mindful formula along the way, and your ability to feel awe increases.
But that's not all! During this evening find out more about planet earth, the geology of this coastline and discover it is akin to the dinosaur coast. Explore deep time, the cosmos and our place in it.
Most importantly, you'll leave feeling awe-inspired. Invigorated. Refreshed. And maybe, just maybe, ready to embrace those darker months...
Further information - PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING
The evening can last anything from 3 - 4 hours depending on the weather.
Our usual route takes us along the Cinder Track (old railway track) for roughly 3 miles before heading down the hill to the shoreline. Please note, we may change the route at very short notice to enhance the experience. The walk can range in length from 4 - 6 miles and will depend on conditions underfoot and weather.
There are hills (some steep), steps (lots of them), lots of mud too. When we reach the shoreline we will head back along the (now shingle and rock) beach. We will cross a shallow beck (stream).
