Marsden Shuttle

Marsden Shuttle The Marsden Shuttle canal boat is owned and run by Huddersfield Canal Society. Operated by volunteers The trip lasts about 15 minutes each way.

We run a regular shuttle service between the lock by Marsden Station and the Standedge Tunnel Visitor Centre. No timetable, but we leave Marsden Station (Lock 42) or the Standedge Tunnel Visitor Centre around every 30 minutes. We rely on volunteers to run the service, so please check before you leave home to ensure the boat is running that day at https://bit.ly/3UTBmCM. We carry up to 12 passenger

s. No fares, we just ask for a donation by card or into the on board bucket. Be as generous as you like – it all helps to keep the boat running! You can also donate online. We run every day during local school half terms & holidays (not winter) and every weekend between Easter and the end of October. Skippered boat hire is also available by contacting [email protected]. We offer a 3 to 4 hour round trip between Standedge or Marsden Station and the Little Lock Café on weekdays during local school term time.
