Take a ride on Britain's oldest water balanced funicular, the Saltburn Cliff Tramway. In 1924 an electrically operated water pump was installed. The installation has been lovingly refurbished over the past decade restoring the Tramway to its former Victorian glory.

The Saltburn Cliff Tramway links the town of Saltburn with the only remaining pleasure pier on the whole of North East and Yorkshire coast.

The town of Saltburn hosts an annual programme of exciting family events and seasonal activities too.
