Britain's longest river offers so much to canoeists, kayakers and
paddleboarders. Paddlers can choose between the river's diverse but
always attractive and engaging surroundings; Cambrian Mountains
white water, North Shropshire Plain meanders, deep Midlands
valleys, broad Worcestershire floodplains, expanses of estuarine
sandflats. The Severn is clean, green and lush, its ecosystems
healthier than they have been in centuries; it is remarkably quiet
and free of traffic; and finally, it is untamed and free-flowing
with white water along its length, only engineered in its final
freshwater stretches. Folk from prehistoric times onwards have left
traces accessible to paddlers, from cathedrals and castles to
quaysides and canals. Most famously, Ironbridge 'the cradle of the
Industrial Revolution'. This is the first paddling guidebook to the
River Severn which covers the entire river in all its moods. This
book aims to guide paddlers along the Severn and through its
rapids, riffles and locks, whilst also highlighting the river's
natural and historical surrounds.
