Walked on 26 July 2024. Another easy canal walk. A great slow way....

Despite the fact that the gates blocking access to the canal have been moved, so it looks as if you could walk along the canal, it really is completely closed at Burbage Wharf - so *do* follow the diversion!...

Another good Slow Way following the Kennet and Avon canal! The route is flat and very easy to follow....

Walk this route

This is a super easy canal towpath route, and even better it has railway stations at either end, so excellent candidate for a #RailWalk. Mostly the towpath was dry and firm underfoot, (photo 5 is typical) but following such a wet winter its not surprising that there was some mud around....
