The Abbey Line is a 6.5 mile (10km) local railway line running between Watford Junction, on the National Rail Network, and St Albans Abbey stations. The Abbey Line Trail takes the scenic route between these stations and links to stations in between. So you could complete the full 9-mile trail in one go or break it up into smaller sections by taking the train and enjoy a different walk over several visits. The Trail is waymarked and there is leaflet with a map of the route available to download, so walkers are able to explore the various routes at their leisure.

A pdf leaflet is available on the weblink below.
