Cheshire Ring Interactive Map

The Cheshire Ring – Interactive map Ring is a popular Canal ring that takes in the Ashton Canal, Macclesfield Canal, Peak Forest Canal, Rochdale Canal, Trent & Mersey Canal and the Bridgewater Canal.

It can take 2 weeks, dependant on your pace to travel 97 miles and go through 92 locks.
NOTE: Have been told can be done in a week?

If you are planning on doing the Cheshire Ring our map shows all the place in our database on the ring, we are always updating this, So if you want to find a Mooring, Pub and Restaurants as well as location you can purchase Diesel or get a Pump out or full with Water.

To check for scheduled closures and other problems, it is best to visit the CRT Notices and stoppages page


If you have completed the Cheshire Ring, how about a decorative map for you wall. We love the maps designed by Jo on NB Perseverance, take a look at their Tube-style illustration of the Cheshire Cruising Ring.
