National Express Line Train

The line is some 30 miles long, connecting the magnificent city of Norwich with the north Norfolk coastal towns of Cromer and Sheringham, via the Norfolk Broads at Salhouse, Hoveton and Wroxham. Its name recognises a special, local bird, which has a distinctive booming call. A regular, almost hourly service operates along the route (less frequent on Sundays) which has been described as "One of the most picturesque lines in the country".

A great day out

The Bittern Line has something for everyone - it offers a wide range of things to do for passengers of all ages. Take a gentle stroll around Norwich, along the north Norfolk coast, or on the more demanding Weavers' Way long distance footpath, which passes nearby Bittern Line stations . Hire a bike or bring your own on the train (don't forget to book your bike in advance) and explore the quiet country lanes (ask for the Bittern Line Cycle Guide when you book your bike or buy your ticket).

With Cheap tickets and special offers, inclusive holidays, discounts at attractions throughout the seasons, guided walks and many more reasons for you to travel and let yourself unravel. The Bittern Line truly is, "The line for all seasons and a ride for all reasons"!
