Boating in Staffordshire

The scenery in Staffordshire is full of contrasts.

From the natural beauty of Cannock Chase to interesting sandstone outcrops near Kinver - there's no better way to see Staffordshire than from a slow-moving narrowboat. With connections to most of the Midlands' important waterways, the Trent & Mersey Canal is a favourite part of no less than four cruising rings. The -and-worcestershire-canal Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal was built as one of the trunk routes of the canal age and today, it is hugely popular with pleasure boats. Last but by no means least, the Caldon Canal is arguably England’s most scenic waterway.
