Spike Island Great Sankey Canal
As The Ferry Tavern Is In The Middle Of Spike Island Widnes And Sankey Valley Park Warrington I Find It The Best Place To Park As There Is Free Parking And A Dog Friendly Pub. From The Ferry Tavern You Can Choose Which Way You Want To Walk, Widnes Or Warrington But Both Paths Will Be Flat And About 4 Miles Until You Reach Nice Open Areas Ideal For Playing With Your Companion Then Walk Back Down To The Dog Friendly Tavern For Refreshments For Yourself Before You Leave. Very Nice Day Out For A Long Walker.
