The longest, deepest and highest canal tunnel in Britain on the Huddersfield Narrow Canal. There is a visitor centre that can be visited for free and there are also boat trips into the tunnel available (for a fee). Cafe at the vistor centre. Decent ride along the canal tow path from Slaithewaite.

Although it was closed it is still worth a visit.
The Standedge Tunnels are four parallel tunnels through the Pennine hills at the Standedge crossing between Marsden in West Yorkshire and Diggle in Greater Manchester in northern England. Three are railway tunnels and the other is a canal tunnel
When open you can take rides into the tunnel on the barge
