Autumn boat trips across the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct

Autumn boat trips across ‘The Stream in the Sky’

In September and October, our ‘Little Star’ trip boat will be operating five trips a day across the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct.

Nicknamed ‘The Stream in the Sky’, our boat trips offer passengers the chance to enjoy panoramic views of the beautiful autumn colours emerging across the Dee Valley.

Experience this World Heritage site afloat

The UNESCO World Heritage Pontcysyllte Aqueduct carries boats 126 feet high across the Dee Valley.

Our daily skippered boat trips aboard ‘Little Star’ offer the chance to cruise along the Llangollen Canal and across this incredible structure.

This Autumn, passengers can enjoy amazing views across the Dee Valley, seeing the changing colours in the trees.

Onboard commentary is provided
