Nottinghamshire
A historic river flows through the beautiful county of Nottinghamshire.
Bronze Age travellers made use of the River Trent. Centuries later, the Vikings sailed up the river en route to conquer the Midlands - and today, boaters, walkers and cyclists explore the varied landscape of Nottinghamshire via its winding river and scenic canals.
Waterway buffs can explore the heart of DH Lawrence country with a cycle ride along the Erewash Canal, admire the industrial architecture still evident on the Cromford Canal and take a walk past the narrow and wide locks of Cuckoo Dyke – also known as the Chesterfield Canal.
