The best place if you want to walk straight flat, ( not many up and down) . You may be able to discover the nature domestic one inhabited places, and more wild nature where is not populated. Good for cycling, good for running, family working, it have many picnic areas, fishing to, obvious with respect look out for others and share. Turning back of nature it's very, from the famous kingfisher ,swans, ducks, seagulls, hedgehogs, rabbits, pigeons, herons, fish, foxes etc. And we can't stop on here we complete with trees with their branches spin and turn, season flowers, all home and shelter for all plus the bridges and the history of the construction and the purpose, now used to recreate purpose and relaxation around sun sets, ( over Morecambe Bay, lake district, in the summer, )when do birds sing, and the colour of the sky catch your view. It's quite long there shops, pabs quiet near to the path (able to see them) Lancaster...

I love the Lancaster Canal! Walking the towpath looking at its historical structures, most of which are Grade II Listed by Historic England, and watching the array of plant and animal life which live in the canal corridor, there is always something interesting to see. This year is the 200th anniversary of the opening of the most northern stretch, between Tewitfield and Kendal (known as the Northern Reaches) so there will be commemorative events taking place...

As canals go the Lancaster Canal runs from Preston to Kendal although it is not navigable further north of Tewitfield. Indeed much of the canal does not exist as you approach Kendal but what is left is worth exploring such as Hincaster Tunnels and look out for the little people who live in the trees near there. Good footpaths around Lancaster to Carnforth and hostelry is always close. Waterwitch, Hest Bank Hotel, Royel, Canal Turn and Lobglands are a few...

Wonderful place to get away from town closer to the nature. Good roads for bike rides and hiking. Lot's of wildlife too, if you pay close attention. In the summer great place also to find fresh and clean nettle for cooking. If you get tired, planty benches to get some rest or to have a picnic. Also you can turn to nature trail that will lead you to the Orchard. Will definitely recommend this walk to new visitors of Lancaster.

Great and easily accessed for walking and fishing. Paths are slippy and boggy in places if wet, but this doesn't detract from being out in nature. From Stainton down to Carnforth, this canal offered such a variety of terrain, plant life, wildlife and veiws. Food and drinks available at Longlands Pub at Tewitfield.

If you like nature and love walking the canal tow path is for you. I often walk the stretches around Lancaster, historic buildings line the canal through the city then rolling countryside and it's birds, animals and quiet out of town. There's also the odd hostelry to stop at for food and drinks.
