Kennet & Avon Canal Towpath Near Devizes

Highlight • Trail

Outside of Devizes the canal towpath you'll have the towpath mostly to yourself, otherwise as you go through the town and down Caen Hill Locks there are quite a few people. No problems though, just slow down, ting the bell and greet everyone with a smile and everyone gets along nicely.

Kennet and Avon Canal Towpath

Highlight • River

The Kennet and Avon Canal is a waterway comprising two sections of navigable river linked by a section of canal. It travels through gorgeous countryside and vibrant urban areas, beginning in Bristol and finishing in Reading. This stretch of the canal is exceptionally pretty, with colourful narrowboats, vibrant hedges and even the odd kingfisher flitting around.
