The charity making life better by water

Horseshoe Falls, Llangollen Canal

Llangollen and the Horseshoe Falls

The beautiful Llangollen Canal twists its way through the awesome Welsh hills and across the spectacular Dee Valley. No wonder it is a top choice for boaters and family visits alike.

Taking in two stunning neighbouring locations: the Llangollen Wharf in Llangollen town centre and the Horseshoe Falls along the towpath on meeting point of the canal and the River Dee, both areas are part of the 11 mile long UNESCO World Heritage Site around Pontcysylte Aqueduct and Chirk.
