'The Grand Union Canal, running 147 miles from Paddington in west London to Gas Street in the heart of Birmingham, was in its day the main artery of the country's transport system.  The canal towpath, now opened as Britain's newest long-distance footpath, offers the walker a route which not only passes through some of the finest country side in southern England, but also provides constant interest, in the form of colourful canal boats, the prolific wildlife of the canal bank and many fascinating sites associated with the waterway and its history.'
