Atherstone Canal Walk
Atherstone Canal Walk by Philip Wild

A relaxing, easy-to-follow route mainly along the Coventry Canal towpath and with short pavement sections through the towns at each end. The towpath surface varies and can be muddy in places. Follows the Coventry Canal; passes canal marinas, evidence of quarrying and an information board on the possible site of Boudica's last battle. A direct train links the two towns.

Waterway: four fifths along the Coventry Canal.

Lunch: Shops and a variety of supermarkets in Nuneaton, with stops and shops at both ends.
