Description

Starting at Spyvee street at the start of the footpath of what once was the Hornsea/Hull Railway line, the route takes you to the sea front at Hornsea where the monument for the end of the Trans Pennine trail is located. The route is mainly hard surface and compacted mud. 

This route is a popular route taking advantage of a railway line lost to the Beeching cuts in the 1960's by Lord Beeching. It essentially links Hull and Hornsea with one footpath but does cross a number of roads. The route can not start at Hull rail station station as the path has been lost to development.
