Levisham Estate is virtually the North York Moors in miniature. Into 3358 acres it packs almost everything that gives the National Park its special character: spectacular landforms, ancient woodlands, world-class archaeology, fascinating wildlife and beautiful heather moorland.

Some of the best-loved beauty spots in the National Park are part of the estate including breathtaking scenery of the Hole of Horcum, a vast natural amphitheatre and Newtondale, with its celebrated steam railway.

There are quieter areas too such as the wild expanses of Fen Moor, the rich wetlands of Nab Farm, and the archaeological wonders of Levisham Moor.

Because the whole of the estate is Open Access Land, you're free to walk, run, climb, picnic and take pictures wherever you like. Levisham Estate is owned and cared for by the North York Moors National Park Authority who works with local farmers and landowners to ensure that this special area is conserved for future generations to enjoy.
