aboutSectionText

The Wey & Arun Canal is a partially restored waterway that runs just south of Guildford in Surrey to Pallingham in West Sussex. The Wey & Arun Canal Trust and its volunteers have worked on more than half of the route, with the longest restored section at Loxwood providing towpath routes and boat trips at weekend and holidays. Our largest trip boat can seat 48 and is accessible to wheelchair users. Alongside the wharf is a fully accessible information centre offering information about the canal and other tourist sites, and disabled toilet.

Excursion along the towpath by the canal at Loxwood

Good path for wheelchairs, just a little bumpy in places. Better in dry weather as there are potentially a few muddy sections. Help may be needed on a couple of short slopes (level changes at two of the locks) unless you are power assisted. We did this Drungewick acquaduct to pub/canal centre then back again - about an hour in each direction at a steady walking pace. Accessible loo in both pub and canal centre. Walk could be reversed if preferred. Informal roadside parking in Drungewick Lane near start or at pub/canal centre if starting at other end. Beautiful section of canal. Swans, ducks and fish. Nice countryside views along the way. Pub serves food all day (see separate review).
