Bournemouth Land Train

One of the best ways to appreciate the beauty of Bournemouth’s stunning beaches is to sit back and relax on one of the famous land trains as it takes a leisurely journey alongside the seafront.

You can travel along the promenade from Bournemouth Pier to Boscombe town centre, via the beautiful Boscombe Gardens or head in the other direction from Bournemouth Pier to Alum Chine Beach.

Heading east there are stops at Bournemouth Pier (East), East Cliff Lift, Toft Zigzag, Boscombe Precinct (opposite McDonalds), Boscombe Pier, East Overcliff Drive and Russell Cotes Art Gallery & Museum and stops at Bournemouth Pier (west), West Cliff Lift, Durley Chine, Middle Chine and Alum Chine when heading west. Please note that some stops are request stops.



The brightly coloured trains run daily (April to October) and during school holidays as well as on weekends throughout the winter, subject to weather conditions.
