Bridgwater hasn't got its name for no reason. This thriving town has both the River Parrett and the Bridgwater & Taunton Canal winding through its heart. The canal is particularly lovely, with vibrant banks, old brick bridges and peaceful vistas. At only 14.5 miles (23.3 km) long, the canal links Bridgwater to Taunton and you can walk the entirety. This portion in Bridgwater makes for a lovely stroll and is part of the Samaritans Way South West footpath.

The termination of the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal, Bridgwater Docks is a floating harbour. In its heyday in the 1800s, it saw thousands of vessels a year. The construction had been done under a mortgage and the company, unable to keep up with payments, sold the canal and docks to a railway company instead. The docks were last used for commercial activity in 1971 and are now operated by council. It’s a pretty area to walk around and you’ll see plenty of narrowboats in the marina.

A lovely canal path through Bridgewater. A great alternative to the roads of bridgewater and perfect for most bikes

Get a different view of Bridgwater coming in along the back gardens by the canal. Pretty good light gravel all the way in
