We actually had a bit of a walk/jog/recce of the bit down to Holme. It was a bit confusing at first trying to read up on it. Initially I thought the whole length was navigable, more or less to Kendal and that was 42 mile. Having had a look the week before, I realised the total length of the Lancaster Canal Trail was longer, so just limited myself to the 42 mile navigable section, which was probably just as well. The whole canal thing has been a bit of a revelation having only been in the area 9 or 10 months. We walked into Lancaster from Caton a week or so ago too, which is another good, longish, flatish run/walk.
