    The Clay Bank and Greenham Bottom Walk is a quick and relatively easy journey in the northwest corner of North York Moors National Park that provides amazing views of the surrounding landscape. While out walking the trail, you will pass through forest and open fields along a rugged hillside, before climbing further uphill along the edge of the moor for views of the barren landscape. This walk is fairly short; however, there are a number of climbs and descents throughout that will add a small amount of difficulty.
