Activities in Cheshire

If you’re looking for inspiration or suggestions on something different to do, there is a huge range of activities in Chester and Cheshire to choose from, from fishing to archery, paintballing to falconry you are sure to have a unique experience.

Here are some handpicked favourites so you can enjoy the best Cheshire has to offer. In the age of the Industrial Revolution, a significant canal network was built in Cheshire in order to transport raw materials. Today, the waterways provide a great venue for holiday-makers, anglers, walkers and many more.

Hiring a barge and cruising through the Cheshire canal system yourself is an increasing popular activity and a great way to explore Cheshire's delightful scenery as well as the many canal side pubs.

If you are a bird lover or are simply looking for something different to do while you are visiting Chester or Cheshire, then why not try your hand at Falconry? There are a few specialist venues in Cheshire that are passionate about educating people about birds of prey and their habitats.

Join professional falconers, watch flying demonstrations, meet the various birds and enjoy a range of hands on falconry experiences suitable for all ages and abilities. Soar with eagles, fly with falcons and hoot with owls.

If you are looking for a unique gift for someone special, an exclusive venue for a special occasion or somewhere for team building days why not try one of the activities in Cheshire listed below.
