Cromford Canal

5.5 miles of historic and idyllic canal to explore

Between Cromford Wharf and Ambergate, there are 5.5 miles of historic and idyllic canal to explore. The level and easy to access towpath also provides ideal conditions for walkers, buggies, wheelchairs or mobility scooters.

Wildlife is in abundance along the length of this once bustling industrial waterway, which opened in 1794.
