Sept 2013 

These pages are being updated  - apologies that  not all of the information is currently  available 


The Cricklade Country Way is a unique exciting scheme and has been planned over a number of years. 

The project will create a green recreational and wildlife corridor linking urban Swindon to Cricklade and the Cotswold Water Park. 

The Cricklade Country Way will start at Mouldon Hill on the northern edge of Swindon and when it is complete, as well as enjoying the Country Park, visitors will have a number of different ways to travel between Swindon, Cricklade and the Cotswold Water Park, none of which involve travelling by road

 

By Boat The rebuilt North Wilts canal will provide an opportunity for a water bus journey at a leisurely pace from Mouldon Hill. Descending through four locks, with stops a key interchanges boats will be able to reach a new visitor mooring basin at Cricklade

By Train Extension of the Cricklade and Swindon Steam Railway will bring a station to Mouldon Hill and extend the line to the outskirts of Cricklade

By Cycle Route 45 of the National Cycle Network will link Mouldon Hill  to Cricklade and the Cotswold Water Park Gateway centre

On Foot The North Wilts canal towpath will link Swindon to Cricklade and the shared use path on the Thames and Severn Canal will allow access to the Cotswold Water Park
