The Aylesbury Arm of the Grand Union Canal is a great for family walks and to see wildlife at the water's edge. The Aylesbury Arm used to transport grain, timber, coal and building materials until the 1960s.
Threatened with closure, a team of canal enthusiasts worked hard to keep it open. Today, their dedication has paid off with a new marina just outside of Aylesbury. Just a short walk along the towpath, Circus Field Marina is home to lots of boats and a wet and dry dock.
Aylesbury is home to over 60 restaurants, cafes and bars so you'll not be short of places to sit and watch the world go by. If you're interested in the town's architectural history, the Heritage Walk is a self-guided walk that will have you walking all over town.
