Take a gentle paddle along the Basingstoke Canal as it meanders its way through Hampshire. This isolated spot is literally at the end of Farnborough runway with easy access to the water and basic free parking - your only competition for a space will be plane spotters! From here either head West to Fleet, or East towards Aldershot and Ash.
