Access


There are 4,540 kilometres (2,820 mi) of inland river and canal in England and Wales with navigation rights. There are over 65,000 kilometres (40,400 mi) of inland rivers with no access. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivers_Access_Campaign

THE REVEREND DOUGLAS JOHN MORRIS CAFFYN PhD has conducted considerable work on the legal aspect of River Access. His thesis can be found at the website below. http://www.caffynonrivers.co.uk/

The topic we will deal with for the moment is how you interpret the law as it stands and what you think (if anything) should be changed about it. Please comment and share your views. We can only consider the opinions of the River Users who participate.
Whilst the blog is run by paddlers it is hoped that un-biased opinion can be acheived as there are no limitation on who can comment.

  1. well clearly the law is not clear in this situation but if we do not use the rivers in fear of prosecution then what's the point. The revirs should be used ny all! caffynonrivers is what we should go by and all river users should have to abide by it.
