Alban Way is a paved multi-use path running between Hatfield and St Albans, constructed along the route of the former Hatfield to St Albans railway line. The Hatfield - St. Albans branch was an early casualty under British Railways, closing to passengers on 1st October 1951; freight traffic lingered until 1968.
Along the route there are a couple of sculptures and a few places to stop and rest; all the old stations / halts are signposted along the route and there are plenty of information boards. The old Nast Hyde Halt station platform has been beautifully restored and is a highlight of the route.
