The name comes from the fields of strawberries planted around Axbridge and Cheedar, where the railway line ran from 1864 to 1963. The route passes through arable land, pasture and cider orchards and Axbridge.
Since the 1980s, the route has been in the process of being transformed, step by step, into a beautiful greenway through North and Mid-Somerset. The path will be suitable for walkers, cyclists, wheelchair users, mobility scooters, and on some sections, equestrians. Once completed, the Strawberry Line path will run from Shepton Mallet to Clevedon, incorporating the Cheddar Valley Line trackbed wherever possible, as well as much of the disused Clevedon branch line.
Start: Yatton station car park or Valley Line industrial car park in Cheddar (or in Axbridge or Winscombe along the route).
Route type: Cycle Path
