Relaxed route: Ellesmere and Return - 14 miles, 0 locks, 7 hours total
Ideal for those wishing to experience a remote retreat through breath-taking scenery. Start your journey by cruising south-west passing Whixall Moss - a nature reserve home to a variety of rare plants and wetland birds. As you continue down the canal you pass Cole Mere, tucked behind the trees, then Blake Mere which is a beautiful lake right next to the canal. The countryside gives way to wooded hills as you approach Ellesmere. Ellesmere is an 18th Century market town with tall red brick houses and narrow winding streets; there is a greengrocer, a delicatessen and several pubs - so plenty of opportunity to stock up on food. You can moor at the marina here to explore the town, before turning around to head back to Whixall.
Intermediate route: Chirk and Return - 35 miles, 4 locks, 16 hours total
Start your journey by cruising south-west passing a nature reserve home to a variety of rare plants and wetland birds. As you continue down the canal you pass Cole Mere and Blake Mere. The countryside gives way to wooded hills as you approach Ellesmere Tunnel (87 yards) and Ellesmere village is within walking distance if you have time. Pass Frankton Junction heading west through rural farmland, coming across two locks as the landscape becomes hillier. After a sharp corner you arrive at the Chirk Aqueduct. Chirk village is situated on the Wales/England border and is overlooked by Chirk Castle - now owned by the National Trust - which is worth exploring; maybe even stopping off for a traditional Welsh Cake in the Castle's tearoom. There are also some canalside pubs between Ellesmere and Chirk for you to choose from. Turn your boat to before Chirk Tunnel to start making your return journey to Whixall.
Intermediate Route: Wrenbury Mill & Return - 26 miles, 20 locks, 17.5 hours total
Depart Whixall marina and head east up the Llangollen Canal and through the lift-bridge at Whitchurch, mooring nearby on your first evening; it is a 20 minute walk into Whitchurch town, where there are numerous shops and pubs. In the morning, make your way through Grindley Brook Staircase Locks, which are often manned by a lock-keeper. Very close to these locks there's a pub to stop at for refreshments and a small shop. A little further ahead, there's a canalside pub at Willeymoor and two more locks. You'll then continue east through pretty countryside, farmland and numerous stone and brick bridges, to Wrenbury. Open the automated swing-bridge (worked with a key) to enter Wrenbury Mill Wharf, where you can moor up near bridge 19. The Wharf there is made up of a converted mill, now used as a boatyard, and a warehouse which has been converted into a pub. There is a second pub very close by and it's only a short walk into the village. Turn around here and return to Whixall.
Active route: Trevor and Return - 42 miles, 4 locks, 19 hours total
Head south-west, cruising through pretty countryside towards Whixall Moss and the village of Ellesmere. There are lovely woodland walks from nearby 'Meres Visitor Centre' if you fancy a walk. Pass Frankton Junction heading west through rural farmland, coming across two locks as the landscape becomes hillier. After a sharp corner you arrive at the Chirk Aqueduct and Tunnel. Chirk village is situated on the Wales/England border and is overlooked by Chirk Castle - now owned by the National Trust - which is worth exploring; maybe even stopping off for a traditional Welsh Cake in the Castle's tearoom. There are also some canalside pubs between Ellesmere and Chirk for you to choose from. Returning to the boat, cruise through a small tunnel then the River Dee appears soon after, leading you towards Trevor and the amazing Pontcysyllte Aqueduct.
