The river meets the canal basin at the Bancroft Gardens. Many simply sit by the side of the river watching all the activities.
During the summer a frantic river race takes place, where craft's of all types partcipate to 'struggle' down the river on rafts, canoes, home-made boats, all supported by the local clubs and individuals in aid of local charities. It is possible to hire a range of crafts: rowing boats, small motor boats, where you can explore the river for quite a way. Canal boats can also navigate thye river, where downstream are locks allowing them to avoid the weirs and pass downstream to Bidford and Evesham.
If you would like to simply enjoy the delights of the river and let someone else take the responsibility, you have jump aboard the cruise boat or even the indulge in the evening cruise and dinner boat.
There are walks along the river and an excellent and peaceful walk down alongside the weeping willows, over the river and around the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. Click here for a fuller description of the Riverside Walk.
