The River Nene, from Northampton to Peterborough

The River Nene is an important river connecting the east of England to the rest of the waterway network. As one of the quieter rivers, the Nene is a great place for a relaxing boating or fishing trip. It's also an ideal place to get active with lots of opportunities for canoeing, kayaking and countryside cycling.
