Boating near Lancaster

There's something to interest every boater in Lancashire.

The Leeds & Liverpool Canal inspires with a succession of swing-bridges and staircase locks which are conveniently grouped into flights, so you can relax for long stretches and appreciate the Lancashire scenery. The full length of the lovely Lancaster Canal is lock free, making it popular with both experienced boaters and those just dipping their toes in the water.
