There-and-back walks
No two stations share a walkable stretch of the Hornsea Rail Trail, so these walks head out along the path and come back to the same station. The distance is the longest the path allows, up to 20 miles; turn round sooner for a shorter walk.
| Station | Out along the path | Distance | Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Barrow Haven | 5.0 mi and back | 22 to 23.5 mi | about 7.5 to 8 hours |
| New Holland | 5.9 mi and back | 21.5 to 23 mi | about 7 to 7.5 hours |
