スラムステッドのおすすめツーリングルート

This is a picturesque lock situated along the Kennett and Avon Canal on the western outskirts of Reading. On the other side of the lock is one of the Hosehill Lakes so you're granted great views in all directions.

The Kennet and Avon Canal runs for 87 miles (140 km) from the River Avon in Bath to Reading and the River Thames. It was completed in 1810 and then repaired between 1960 and 1990 after falling into disrepair due to the railways. Today it's almost completely leisure use with a brilliant tow-path running almost the entire length, perfect for car free miles of flat riding.

Lovely café, now open sensible days and times. Fair prices and choices.

This bridge is operated by hand, i.e. muscle power

Delightful food and drink

Nice view of the Lock and Weir. Check in the Coppa restaurant.

The Kennet and Avon towpath between Theale and Aldermaston Wharf offers a serene section of traffic-free cycling passing by lakes, woodland, locks and narrow boats. At Aldermaston Wharf you'll pass by the Kennet & Avon Visitors' Centre where you can learn more about this historic canal and enjoy a slice of cake at its tearoom.

Superb tearooms, the latte and coffee cake were delicious and very welcome. Outside tap to fill up water bottle. Toilet very clean
