Welcome to Exploring Yorkshire

Hi there, and welcome to Exploring Yorkshire – your guide to discovering the beauty, history, and charm of one of England’s most remarkable regions.

From the wild moors and dramatic coastlines to cosy market towns and ancient cities, Yorkshire offers an incredible variety of landscapes and experiences. We’ve spent years wandering its trails, touring its towns, and enjoying its pubs, festivals, and food – and we created this site to share the best of what we’ve found.

More Than Just a Pretty View

Yes, Yorkshire is stunning – and rightly celebrated for its national parks, castles, coastline, and culture. But there’s far more to it than the obvious sights. Exploring Yorkshire aims to bring you a little bit of everything: the well-known highlights, local favourites, and quiet corners worth uncovering.

What You’ll Find Here

Everything on this site is based on first-hand experiences, careful research, and a genuine love for Yorkshire. We regularly update our content with guides, seasonal tips, events, and fresh finds – whether it’s a scenic walk, an independent café, or a summer show in a market square.

Why We Built This

Exploring Yorkshire grew from a passion for local discovery. It’s designed to help visitors and residents alike connect with the region in new and meaningful ways – through history, nature, food, and community.

We hope it becomes a trusted resource for your own Yorkshire adventures.

About Exploring Yorkshire

Exploring Yorkshire is created by a small team with a shared passion for travel, photography, and uncovering the best of Yorkshire. We’ve explored the coast, countryside, towns, and trails – and this site is where we share our favourite places, seasonal highlights, and stories that make this region special.

We’re based in the UK and have travelled widely, but Yorkshire continues to inspire us with its depth, diversity, and character. Over time, you’ll see contributions from different voices, each bringing a personal take on what makes Yorkshire worth exploring.

Whether you’re planning a short visit or looking for new ideas closer to home, we hope Exploring Yorkshire helps you connect more deeply with the county.
