The long-distance paths
The Yorkshire Wolds Way, end to end.
The Humber Bridge to the cliffs at Filey, through the quietest chalk in England. A hundred and thirty-two kilometres of dry valleys and deserted villages, and the least walked of the National Trails.

What the print holds
The Yorkshire Wolds Way on paper
This one rewards the whole-path view more than most, because nothing about the Wolds announces itself from inside them. On the sheet the shape is clear: the path leaves the Humber, swings north-west through the dry chalk valleys, then turns north-east and runs to the coast, making a long shallow arc rather than a line.
The dry valleys are the substance of it. There is no surface water in the Wolds — the chalk takes it all — so the landscape is a set of steep green troughs with nothing running in them, and the path spends its days dropping into one and climbing out of the next. At this scale that shows as a line that ripples constantly without ever going anywhere dramatic.
The finish is the surprise. After a hundred and twenty kilometres of inland chalk the path arrives at Filey Brigg, a rock finger sticking into the North Sea, and meets the Cleveland Way coming the other way. Two National Trails end on the same headland.
It prints portrait. It is the one people buy because they walked it and nobody else they know has.
At A3 the whole arc fits and the valleys are legible as texture; at A2 the individual dry valleys separate and the deserted medieval villages along the route become findable. It is a subtle print either way, which is appropriate, and it hangs better in a hallway than over a desk because it rewards being walked past slowly.
What to frame
Each opens the Studio already framed. Change your mind there — the path, or a day of it.
How it works
From the Studio to your wall in three steps.
Step 01
Choose your subject
Connect Strava in one tap for a race, a ride or a whole year. Or search for a place, type a postcode for your street on the old Ordnance Survey, or add a photograph — none of those needs an account.
Step 02
Choose your style
Start from a finished design and make it yours: the words, the colours, the size. Twenty-three styles for your own miles, four treatments for a place, six layouts for a photograph, and the old survey as drawn or in your colours.
Step 03
We print and frame it
Pick a frame, check out, and it is printed to order on fine-art paper, framed by hand and posted to you, tracked.

Good to know
Why is it so quiet?
No mountains, no coast for most of its length, and no famous name. That is the argument for walking it and, for some people, the argument for framing it.
Does it really start at the Humber Bridge?
At Hessle, underneath it. The bridge is the first thing you walk away from and it is on the print.
What is at Filey Brigg?
The end of this path and the end of the Cleveland Way. The Brigg itself is a reef of rock running out into the sea, and both trails finish by walking out along it. If you have walked both, the two prints share a corner, and hung together they close a loop round the whole of the North York Moors and the chalk south of them.
I have not walked the whole thing. Can I still have it?
Yes. The print draws the Yorkshire Wolds Way itself — the path as it is waymarked, end to end — with or without a walk of your own on it. People buy it before they set off as often as after.
Can it show my own walk instead?
It can show both. Connect Strava and the Studio draws your days along the path — the miles you actually covered over the line as it is mapped, with your time on feet and your climb beneath.
