The Kennet and Avon Canal is a popular navigable waterway crossing Southern England from Bristol to Reading.
The gentle pace of the canal has a seductive charm of its own, allowing the opportunity to study the prolific wildlife which inhabits the canal and the surrounding environment.
After a morning or day’s cruising, you may have developed a healthy appetite. Satisfying this hunger isn’t difficult with a host of waterside pubs available along the canal. Many of these grew up with the canal and thus have interesting stories to tell. Apart from quenching the cruiser’s thirst the majority of them serve a variety of good food, ranging from a bar snack to a three course meal.
