Cruises

Whether you are a boat owner or are hiring a boat or whether it is a narrowboat or cabin cruiser, there is no better place to be than on the water anywhere in the UK from April to October for the majority of us, or all year round for some of us. There are over two thousand miles of navigable water in the UK alone most of which is connected together as part of a system.

It is intended that this section of Canal Cuttings will grow to include all of the popular named cruises, like the Cheshire Ring and the Four County Ring along with full length cruises of individual canals like the Llangollen Canal and Leeds & Liverpool Canal. We will, of course, try to cover also cruises along navigable rivers.

We have started off the section with our own cruise of the Four County Ring taken during May 2005. Our cruise was taken in an anti-clockwise direction starting and ending at Penkridge in Staffordshire. This cruise also includes two cut and paste linear routes one clockwise; one anti-clockwise, that you can print off and use on your own cruise.
