Description
We cruise cruise cruise clockwise around the Stourport Ring from Stourport Basin.
First along the Staffs & Worcester Canal with the picturesque sections leading to Stourton Junction where we have a choice of routes. First we follow the shorter route along the Stourbridge Canal and through Delph. Then we return to Stourton Junction to follow the longer alternative via Aldersley Junction. Merging back to a single route we head into Birmingham. This delightful route through the city includes Brindley Place, Broad Street Tunnel, Gas Street Basin and Worcester Bar in quick succession.
Turning to follow the Worcester and Birmingham Canal we follow the long, lock free, summit pound until we reach the 30 locks at Tardebigge to start our descent, reaching Hanbury Junction after a further 6 locks. The Droitwich Canals, now under restoration, will soon provide another alternative route but for now we follow them on foot to Hawford Junction. Continuing along the Worcester and Birmingham Canal leads us to Worcester and the majestic River Severn which returns us to Stourport.

A Customer –
Only shows the Droitwich Canals on foot while they were being restored but includes the route via Worcester and the route via Wolverhampton so that’s a bonus.
