Old Moaner Travel

Stretching for 137 miles the Grand Union Canal links the industrial Midlands and Birmingham with the capital.

​

The M1 of its day, it allowed goods and coal to be transported from the industrial heartlands to London and for foreign imports to be moved from London to the heart of the country.

​

Nowadays the canal is used for leisure and this walk goes from Birmingham to London. 

​

In 2017 I walked the entire length of the canal and for simplicity I have broken the walk into eigh bite size chunks, there is nothing to be read into how the walk is divided so don't try and read something into how it's split.
