Hungerford Wharf

Once a bustling industrial canal wharf,  it  is now a serene escape.

It’s a wonderful starting point for discovering the picturesque Kennet & Avon Canal.

With lush green meadows, graceful willows, charming water voles, vibrant kingfishers, sparkling chalk streams, and whimsical canal bridges, it’s hard to believe such beauty is just a leisurely stroll away along the towpath.

There’s something for everyone!

A warm welcome is waiting for you on the delightful canal boat, The Hungerford Rose.

Enjoy public trips and private charters from Hungerford , lovingly run by trained volunteers to support the Kennet & Avon Canal Trust.
