Narrowboat Holidays on the Leeds & Liverpool Canal from Silsden

The Leeds & Liverpool Canal is a stunning waterway that weaves through the diverse landscapes of Northern England.

Spanning over 127 miles, it is the longest canal in Britain, connecting the vibrant city of Leeds with the historic port of Liverpool.

Whether you’re gliding along its peaceful waters by narrowboat or exploring its scenic towpaths on foot, the canal offers a unique escape that blends history, culture, and natural beauty.

Built in the late 18th century, the Leeds & Liverpool Canal is a masterpiece of British engineering and a vital part of the nation’s industrial history.

Along its route, you’ll find iconic landmarks such as the Bingley Five Rise Locks, one of the most impressive lock flights in the country, and the striking Burnley Embankment, known locally as the “Straight Mile.”

Each stretch of the canal tells a story of the determination and ingenuity that shaped the region.
