School Trip to the North York Moors
Overview
School Trip to the North York Moors
Designated a National Park in 1952, The North York Moors are characterised by their incredible beauty and a calming sense of space, solitude and tranquillity. Whatever the season, the Moors offer the perfect place to get away from it all and enjoy a perfect school trip. Ridge upon ridge of purple heather moorlands extend into the distance, while the natural beauty of secluded dales and rugged heritage coastlines make it the ideal place to explore.
