We did it!
199 steps in a gale force wind but we did it. The views are amazing over Whitby so don’t forget your camera. There are seats along the steps to stop and rest but worth it.

Can’t go to Whitby without climbing the 199 steps. Great views. Look out for the marker on every 10th step. We went in February so wasn’t busy. Can imagine it’s not as much fun with lots of people.
It’s something we always do when visiting Whitby, climb the 199 steps! Rain, snow or blow, it’s worth that effort to get to the top, and take in the magnificent views beneath you!

Really good views of the town all the way up. A couple of places to stop on the way up if you are struggling. I thought it was worth it.
Great views!
