Blackmore Vale Line
Tisbury – Crewkerne
The journey takes in the most picturesque countryside that you can explore further with easy access to many walks including the Liberty Trail, White Hart Way and National Cycle Routes along the way. Ideal for a day trip, short break on longer staycation and travelling by train is a great way to make your trip greener.
On approaching Crewkerne the route borders the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), before entering the lush green valleys and hills of the Blackmore Vale. After Gillingham you leave the Blackmore Vale and the route runs along the Vale of Wardour and the stunning countryside of the Nadder Valley shortly before arriving at Tisbury, the only ‘dark sky friendly railway station in the UK. Tisbury is also the gateway to Cranborne Chase AONB and the International Dark Sky Reservation.
