Route Description for Stroud and Stonehouse Canal Walk

The Stroud and Stonehouse Canal Walk is a lovely adventure in The Cotswolds AONB, that will take you between these two towns along scenic waterways. As this is a one-way trail, you will need to either take the train back to the starting point of the walk or arrange a pick up at the end of the route. Luckily, the start and end points are both located next to rail stations. Setting out from Stroud, you will head to the west and cross over the canal, following along its edge as you meander past beautiful recreation areas, old industrial buildings, and historic mills. Take some time to appreciate the peaceful waterside setting, as you work your way between the two towns and eventually arrive at the terminus of the trail next to the Stonehouse rail station. From here, you can walk back along the trail to relive the scenic views or travel back via your desired method of transportation.
