Canal Nav is a free route planner and satnav for the United Kingdom's inland waterways. Plan a route between any two places on the network and the planner follows the water, not roads, counting locks and pacing out each day of a multi-day trip. Live Canal & River Trust closures and stoppages are pulled in automatically and routed around, so a plan stays sensible even when a lock or a stretch of canal is shut. Underway, turn-by-turn navigation with GPS calls out each lock, swing bridge, tunnel and junction as you reach it, with a live speed readout. Maps and routes both work offline, so navigation keeps going through no-signal cuttings and tunnels. The map also shows community moorings, water points and hazards, plus a searchable directory of canal-side businesses. Canal Nav is free to plan and navigate, no account required to get started.
