Highcliff Nab, Guisborough Forest, near the start. A dominant crag overlooking Guisborough, it has until recently become smothered in forestry. Recent felling has now opened up the Nab to its former glory.
Pinchinthorpe Visitor Centre. An old railway carriage has recently been installed at the centre with the intention I think of converting it into a classroom.
The trail at this point descends Green Hill through Kemplah Woods to Guisborough. In the very far distance is the North Sea.
Field of snow near Highcliff Wood. This picture was taken from the Cleveland Way long-distance footpath as it approaches its junction with the Tees Link footpath. In the distance a part of Highcliff Wood can be seen on the horizon. Highcliff Nab lies just behind the trees on the left-hand side of the picture.
