Canal path to alvechurch and beyond, too muddy for my push bike in december but we have walked it from selly park in the summer, catch the train back.

Nice part of the walk from Brum centre to Redditch, gentle descent to canal.

A pleasant walk from Hopwood to The Wast Hill Tunnel. This time of year the path is a little muddy but worth the effort. Shame the area around the tunnel has become a fly tippers paradise I dread to think what’s in the water. Still it is an Engineering marvel .

Quite an experience to navigate down the tunnel, all lights on in boat, etc but is good. The ceiling is quite damp and dripping in places and obviously it's very long at 2.5km. Takes 45mins - 1 hour to get through. I had no traffic luckily so wasn't too bad, I can imagine it's trickier with traffic both ways. At the rear of the boat you basically cannot see anything around you or behind, just the light at both ends of the tunnel, and the little ahead of the boat illuminated by the headlight. Edit: I went back through it yesterday and could not see to the other side until less than 1000m away, so depends really on weather as to how far you can see

It is a tunnel you can't enter unless in a narrow boat. It's brick and dark.
