Scottish Canals is responsible for the management and development of five canals and their surrounding estates across Scotland. The Forth & Clyde, Union, Monkland, Crinan and Caledonian canals, together extend over 137 miles from coast to coast, across country and into the cities of Glasgow, Edinburgh and Inverness – attracting more than 22 million visitors per year. The network is home to world renowned landmarks The Kelpies and The Falkirk Wheel.
