Find out about the Montgomery Canal between England and Wales.
The popular trip boat George Watson Buck based on the Montgomery Canal in Llanymynech is due to restart 30 minute trips between England and Wales.

Based at the Llanymynech Wharf Visitor Centre in the Limeworks Heritage Area in Llanymynech, the boat trips are ideal for visitors to the area to get a sense of the heritage and wildlife of the Montgomery Canal.

Volunteer run, both the boat and visitor centre offer an interesting insight into the canal and plans for its restoration.

Informative exhibitions in the old stable block highlight the history associated with the Montgomery Canal which was built to carry limestone from local quarries as well as passengers and agricultural goods.

The visitor centre is open every Sunday – and Bank Holiday Mondays – from the spring to the end of September. Opening hours are 1.30 – 4.30pm.

No booking is required for the boat trips and the visitor centre has light refreshments available and a picnic area.   Entrance to the visitor centre is free and boat trips cost £5 for adults and £2.50 per child.
