The bestselling guides to Britains canals and rivers for over 50 years.
This established, popular and practical guide covers the canals and waterways in the north west of England around Merseyside and Manchester. Contains essential information for walking, cycling, canoeing and paddleboarding.
Covered in this guide are: Aire & Calder Navigation, Bridgewater Canal, Calder & Hebble Navigation, Huddersfield Narrow Canal, Huddersfield Broad Canal, Lancaster Canal, Leeds & Liverpool Canal, Macclesfield Canal, Manchester Bolton & Bury Canal, Peak Forest and Ashton Canals, Rochdale Canal, Sankey Canal and Trent & Mersey Canal.
The detailed Ordnance Survey maps clearly show the location of essential features such as locks, towpaths and boating facilities, as well as pubs, shops and restaurants in the area. There are comprehensive navigational notes and descriptive text on the history of each canal, and on local services and places of interest, for which postcodes are included ideal for use with sat-navs. Useful information for canoeing and paddleboarding.
In print for 50 years, the Collins/Nicholson guides to the waterways have always been a vital part of journeys along Britains canals and rivers. These bestselling guides are designed for anyone and everyone with an interest in Britains inland waterways from experienced boaters to those planning their first boat trip, as well as walkers, cyclists and visitors.
"Taste in guide books can be a very personal thing, but few serious boaters will venture out without a Nicholson's Guide. There is a wealth of information that even the most experienced cannot hope to keep abreast of, and the guides are welcome valuable for cyclists and walkers too." The Inland Waterways Association.
