Outdoor footwear and daysacks can be packed in the car this weekend, ready for a new range of nature walks at Robin Hood's Bay.

A new Coast Alive Tracker Pack has been designed to get the most out of family coastal walks and is available to borrow free of charge.

The items which fit easily inside a travel backpack include a map outlining a seaside walk on the Cleveland Way National Trail, binoculars, and a magnifying glass, plus nature activities and a wildlife identification guide.

Martin Hodgson, national trail officer for the Cleveland Way, told the North York Moors National Park that the packs available for pre-booking are a brilliant way of learning more about the area and local wildlife.

Mr Hodgson added: "These new packs will provide fun activities for families to take part in while enjoying the fresh air and wonderful views to be found at Robin Hood's Bay and Ravenscar."

For more adventurous hikers, the Long Distance Walking Association holds regular walks of between ten and 20 miles along the Yorkshire coast throughout the summer.
