Leave the car at home and travel by train.

These self-led walks start and end at local train stations on East Midlands Railway’s Northern Line.

North Staffordshire Community Rail Partnership have created walks that will take you through pretty villages, urban landscapes and Potteries heritage, across rivers and along canals.

Visit hidden gems: historic buildings, independent retailers and friendly cafes or take it slow and stop to feed ducks and spot the wildlife at each stop along the Northern Line.
