The Caen Hill Locks are one of the highlights of Route 4 on the Avon K Canal. Physically this is interesting. The water flows down the mountain, but the ship floats up the mountain lock by lock due to its own buoyancy.

The Kennet & Avon Canal has awesome examples of canal engineering. The 16 locks that form the steepest part of the flight at Caen Hill are not only a scheduled ancient monument, they are an Olympic sized challenge every boater must do. This 'wonder of the waterway' is literally a rite of passage! (Or should that be a flight of passage?) Caen Hill (pronounced ‘cane’ by the way), is one of the longest continuous flight of locks in the country - a total of 29 locks with a rise of 237 feet over 2 miles with a 1 in 44 gradient for anyone who's counting! canalrivertrust.org.uk/places-to-visit/caen-hill-locks

An impressive set of 29 locks cross the canal one after the other between Rowde and Devizes on the Kennet and Avon Canal. Engineered by John Rennie in the 18th century to allow boats to climb the steep hill, the locks take around 5 hours to pass by boat. As thousands of trees were planted around the locks to mark the Queen’s Golden Jubilee, you’ll also find beautiful nature and wildlife here.
