The charity making life better by water

One mile walk to Hawkesbury Junction

Listen beyond the faint noise of traffic and you’ll hear birds calling you onwards. Each step brings calmness as you follow this one-mile walk along the Coventry Canal.

Hawkesbury Junction

Interesting benches dotted along the way tempt you to linger. Hawkesbury Junction holds the beating life of canals - it's where waters meet and people gather to stare. Charismatic iron bridges criss-cross the lapping water and murmurs of the past are held firmly in every brick. This isn't a walk of remote rurality, it's an escape of intrigue and leafy calm.
