T he Nature Trail was devised by Alan Tomlinson, Footpaths & Rights of Way officer for Scarborough Borough Council.
Much of the work required to prepare the route was carried out by Scarborough Conservation Volunteers and staff from SBC Parks & Countryside Services . Members of FoRWoods assisted with way marking.

The Nature Trail begins at Hazel Head car park, which is situated at the junction of the Forge Valley/ Hackness Road and Low Road.
There are two clearly marked trails. For the shorter trail -
The longer trail -
The trail follows clearly defined footpaths, bridleways and tracks with a set of numbered posts marking out areas of interest.
A 26 page illustrated guide to accompany the nature trail has been produced and is
