Liss Riverside Railway Walk

Highlight • Structure

A linear nature reserve connecting Liss and Liss Forest along the route of what was once part of the Longmoor Military Railway. The route also forms part of the long distance Shipwrights Way walking and cycling trail, which runs from Alice Holt Forest, near Farnham, to Portsmouth Harbour.

There is some interesting old railway infrastructure along the route, particularly at the Liss end, where the old buffers, platform and shelters remain.

Woolmer Forest

Highlight • Trail

This large area of heathland and woodland has public footpaths to follow from the hamlet of Conford in the north eastern part of the site.
It is a significant area with a diversity of habitats supporting twelve known native species of reptiles and amphibians. Scenery includes oak-birch woodland, conifer plantations, open sandy heaths, and rough grazed pastures. There's lots of interesting plants and flowers to look out for. Also keep your eyes peeled for birds such as Dartford warbler and European nightjar.

N.B The Woolmer Forest perimeter trail is a popular route. However this area is the outer ring of an active Ministry of Defence (MOD) Range Area and it is illegal and dangerous to enter when the red flags are flying. Please adhere to any closure signs.

If in any doubt then contact Longmoor Ranges by phone on 01420 483405.
