Canal here is very picturesque, but mostly unsurfaced and in places very muddy, and in the Pewsey area alarmingly narrow at certain points due to bank collapse. In reality, there are only a couple of places that can be troublesome unless you have good tread on your tyres. so, if you want to stick to the towpath a close a possible I could highlight the areas of concern. Depends on the speed you want to do it at. Also, there and back along the canal isn't too bad - plenty of interest. You will not be bored covering the route twice. :) |
