About
Discover one of England’s most iconic waterways—the Leeds & Liverpool Canal, stretching 127 miles (204 km) from Liverpool to Leeds. In the Bradford district, it offers a scenic escape through countryside and historic towns, with engineering marvels like the Five Rise Locks at Bingley.
The towpath is easily accessed from Keighley, Bingley, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Saltaire, Shipley, and Apperley Bridge. Along the way, enjoy peaceful waters, Victorian architecture, and glimpses of the region’s industrial past. Originally built for Yorkshire Keel barges, the canal’s broad locks reflect the ingenuity of its time.
Whether you're seeking a gentle stroll, a family outing, or a journey through history, the Leeds & Liverpool Canal is a must-visit in Bradford.
