슈스토크 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

코벤트리 운하의 인기 있는 합류 지점으로, 합류 지점을 조금 지나 탐 강 위로 지나갑니다. 버밍엄 방향으로 가면 Drayton Bassett와 Drayton Manor 근처의 유명한 흰색 스윙 브리지를 지나게 됩니다. Middleton Lakes RSPB 사이트, Middleton Hall 및 Kingsbury Water Park까지 운하를 따라 걸으세요.

Such a towpath (known in German as a towpath or Leinpfad), which runs alongside the river or canal, was an essential part of the transport infrastructure in earlier times. Before ships could move by motor power, horses walked along the bank, pulling the boat against the current. This activity was called "treideln" in German, and thus the "treidelpfad" got its name. Where these paths – running directly along the bank – have survived to this day, they no longer serve their original purpose, but are still popular: namely, with hikers and cyclists.

Rivers and canals crisscross the country, as they were a crucial part of the transport infrastructure – especially in the early days of industrialization. Factories needed the delivery of raw materials in previously unknown quantities, and finished goods also had to find their way to traders. Many of the canals originated in this era. Later, rail and, even later, trucks took over the task of transporting goods. When building the artificial waterways, however, it was important to consider that differences in elevation always had to be overcome, and so locks are often located along the canals – at varying intervals, depending on the local situation. Only with their help was shipping possible.

Beautiful views from this vantage point

This is a pretty stone bridge over the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal with a walkway beneath. Following on from the bridge is Minworth Locks, which allows canal boats to pass.

Nicknamed the Curly Wyrley, the Wyrley & Essington Canal meanders peacefully through the English Midlands. It has few boats, but it is popular with recreational walkers, runners and cyclists.

There are narrow barriers where the trail crosses the main road. Lovely leafy trail for cyclists and hikers - be mindful of people walking dogs
