Where to go and what to see
Your boating holiday or day trip will take you through charming villages and the pretty Hertfordshire countryside, full of wildlife and lovely places to tie up and relax.
One day’s travelling north is the town of Bishop’s Stortford, whilst downstream you reach Ware or Hertford, both steeped in history but with modern shops, facilities and visitor attractions.
Lee Valley Country Park, an RSPB nature reserve and the Enfield Gun Powder Mills museum provide just some of the many opportunities to break your journey.
Or just cruise slowly along the waterway and enjoy the tranquillity. Carry on towards Stratford and the Olympic site, and finally into East London in only 3 days of relaxed cruising. Here the canal passes through London Zoo, and moorings allow easy access to the many London attractions.
