York - Haunted Streets

Before you set off on your awesome adventure to explore York, there are a few things you need to know...

The route is friendly for wheelchair users and pushchairs.

Bring your four-legged friends along! Please note that it is a busy city centre, so dogs will need to be kept on leads. 

The closest long stay pay and display car park to the Trail start point is at the Coppergate Centre (YO1 9NX), just a two-minute walk away. Or why not try York’s fantastic Park and Ride service?

There are some fantastic events in York’s calendar, all of which are great times to visit this beautiful city. However, you may find that some of the clues on this Trail may become obstructed or difficult to access on these occasions. Please check for events before setting off.

There are public toilets available towards the middle and end of the Trail, and the route passes several pubs and a few cafes along the way. 

Looking for more things to do in York? Make a whole day of it and take a look inside York Minster or pay a visit to the Richard III and Henry VII Experiences for more of York’s history? You could even extend your adventuring and have a go at one of our other York Trails (The Chocolate and Sweet Trail will make your mouth water) to let out your inner treasure seeker, daring detective or slippery spy!
