The Kennet and Avon is an impressive feat of engineering, made up of two river navigations and a linking stretch of canal. It runs from the Severn Estuary near Bristol to the River Thames at Reading, over 100 miles long with more than 100 locks, some magnificent engineering and crossing some of the most beautiful scenery in southern England. It was only reopened in 1990 after decades of dereliction. Allow more than a week to cruise. (See more...) |

This canal was really my favorite. When I went down the hill by bycicle for the first time, I had my eyes glued to the grand view. I had no idea when I could reach the bottom of the hill. I saw towns expand below. |

I went to the canal for the last time to see the setting sun. The fields turned orange, reflecting the sunlight. |
