Great walk along the Llangollen Canal. Telford's bridges and aquaducts are well worth exploring on a winter walk. Surrounded by rolling hills of and with Offa's Dyke running alongside. The close by M…Full review by PositivelyBrum

The sheer height of the aquaduct is amazing - or terrifying depending on your fear of heights. But the views are phenomenal. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the walk across.Full review by DorothySharp

Just found out that Jones the Boats will no longer be operating as from Nov 3rd, all because the w***ers at the canal and river trust won't renew the lease for the land they are on, end of an era for us, no more boat trips across the aquaduct and no more fantastic meals on there restaurant boat....... Can't you big boys leave the little ones alone.......

We didn’t from the sun Trevor pub. It was about 9 miles there and back that did include walking round Llangollen as well. It’s an easy 9miles though. My elderly parents did one way and got a taxi back. It’s all flat and a lovely lovely stretch of waterways. Do it!!
Hello from America! How does one arrange for the walk? Is there a fee and a need for a reservation? The reviews are lovely! I love a good walk-about and would enjoy this "adventure". It appears one doesn't have to walk the entire 9 miles. How to get back when finished walking before others keep going? Pubs? Cafes around before the entire walk? I'm sure being a senior, I wouldn't be able to walk the entire way if, in fact, it is 9 miles. Thank you in advance, darlene

Hello Darlene, It is a very informal walk, whilst there may be guided options which I am not aware of you can simply walk along the old tow path as far as you wish to walk. The only downside is your return walk is likely to retrace your steps.
