On a treeless moorland plateau at 400m/1,312 ft above sea level, Blakey is for most walkers the highest and most isolated overnight stop on the whole route. There are only two buildings at Blakey itself: one of them is a pub with some good accommodation as well a bar and restaurant. To find the Dale Head Farm Tea Garden at Rosedale Valley, walk down from The Lion Inn, Blakey and re-join the route, cutting off the road section you will find large pots of coffee and tea waiting, with sandwiches and homemade cakes.
The Lion Inn, on remote Blakey Ridge, is a family-owned 16th century free-house located at the highest point of the North York Moors National Park. It stands at an elevation of 1,325 feet, offering breathtaking views over the valleys of Rosedale and Farndale. The bar is well known for its good selection of quality real ales and an extensive menu - food is served is from 12pm to 10pm in the bar and dining rooms.
