Sound Escape 220. Sit back and enjoy a ride in a canalboat
Thursday, 8 May, 2025

Is there a more peaceful way to travel than by canal boat? You sit back and relax as you potter slowly along the Monmouth-Brecon canal. But what's this? It's action – you've got to operate the lock in order to continue your journey. BBC Countryfile Magazine's Sound Escapes are a weekly audio postcard from the countryside to help you relax and transport you somewhere beautiful, wherever you happen to be. Recorded by Mark Turner, introduced by Hannah Tribe.
