English Canoe Classics : Twenty-five Great Canoe & Kayak Trips North v. 1

English Canoe Classics is an illustrated guide to some of the finest tours of northern England's waterways, from the North Tyne in Northumbria to the Shropshire Union Canal in the West Midlands. Experience scenic lakes, placid canals and broad rivers as they can only be seen from a canoe or kayak.

Eddie and 'Wilf' have chosen the best inland touring routes, described in great detail and illustrated with numerous colour photos and maps. The selected routes are suitable for open canoes, sit-on-tops and touring kayaks. Many of them can be tackled as a single voyage or a series of day trips, with campsites en route. The journeys are all accessible but highly varied, taking place on lakes, sheltered coastline, rivers and canals.

A wonderful book for planning voyages and inspiring dreams, or sharing your experiences with others. The authors bring decades of paddling experience from around the world, with Eddie Palmer's passion for long-distance canoe-camping and competitive background in slalom and whitewater racing, while Nigel Wilford contributes his expertise as a BCU Level 5 Coach and his extensive knowledge of Britain's waterways gained over a lifetime of canoeing.
