Day 3: Market Weighton to
"Wolds Inn" Huggate

 

11.6 miles, 1,575 feet
 

Here the walk get more interesting as the towns are left behind and one gets more of the Wolds feel about the walk with its picturesque countryside and intersecting valleys. We were heading for the “Wolds inn” at Huggate which offers free camping as long as you use the pub facilities!
However, it seems the pub is famous in the region for the size of the portions served and the rumours were not without foundation so you have been warned!!
