Nice gentle short climb up to the bridge over the M2. Road is broken and potholed in places, and loose gravel does tend to collect in the centre. Be cautious on the descent on the other side, as it is narrow, with speed bumps the entire way along.

Swale Station

Highlight • Rest Area

Swale Station is a small, unmanned railway stop located on the Sittingbourne to Sheerness line in Kent, England. Opened in 1922 to serve the nearby Kingsferry Bridge, it primarily caters to local passengers and walkers exploring the surrounding marshlands and the England Coast Path. The station features two short platforms connected by a level crossing and offers a quiet, rural atmosphere with views of the Swale estuary. Though minimal in facilities, Swale Station provides convenient access to the Isle of Sheppey and serves as a tranquil gateway between the mainland and the island’s scenic landscapes.
