Title: Railway based walks website. Post by: johnneyw on April 30, 2024, 12:13:38 The Guardian has an article on a website dedicated to walks and rambles accessible between railway stations. This is something I've been doing for years and if there are any that I've done that are not included, I may well contribute to the site. I've long thought that someone should do this.
Here's the link to the article which provides links to the website. https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2024/apr/30/you-can-walk-virtually-everywhere-in-england-by-using-the-train-the-man-connecting-rail-based-walks?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR1NMyPkFCcl7EkrH29lXHTTT4A_hFur-TwN-oXT8ODuTLxeeG-bg3WHZWY_aem_Aen0Zge2xb6pjyqGte5wtul9coTf04nbRXSFWQyPu-ERpr9odFSgqsLgMzXnS-LUqll3hHXxAS0PJpsQZHioTO8l Title: Re: Railway based walks website. Post by: CyclingSid on May 01, 2024, 06:53:25 I have done a few of these, although former railway lines and canals tend to be my preferred routes. My knees were never keen on hills and definitely not nowadays.
Did the Blackwater Valley last year, absolute swamp although probably worse for the youngsters doing their Duke of Edinburgh's. Tends to be spoilt by the roar of the adjacent dual carriageway.
