Pickering itself is a picturesque market town with a rich history and a vibrant atmosphere. You can explore its charming streets, browse through unique shops, indoor market and weekly Monday market, and sample delicious local cuisine in its cosy cafés and restaurants. The town also hosts various events throughout the year, including the popular Pickering North Yorkshire moors railway, Sir Nigel Gresley Services.
For those seeking coastal delights, a short train ride from Pickering takes you to Levisham, Goathland, Grosmonts and then onto Whitby, a charming seaside town famous for its connection to Bram Stoker’s ’Dracula’ and its iconic Whitby Abbey. Explore the historic streets lined with quaint shops and traditional fish and chip restaurants. You can also stroll along the sandy beaches, enjoy boat trips, or visit the Captain Cook Memorial Museum.
Dalby Forest is fantastic for mountain biking, and there is also a Go Ape, a high wire tree-top adventure. If you prefer to remain closer to the ground, try the forest segways and ride around the forest tracks.

Visit the the bustling market towns of Beverley, Pocklington and Driffield, or the quaint villages of Thornton-le-Dale and Helmsley, as well as the big cities of York and Hull.
