Start: Either at the Leam Boat Centre, Mill Road, Leamington Spa CV31 1BE or at the car park here: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source...1&t=h&z=19
The car park has a height barrier but you can launch from the end of the car park.
To launch from the Leam Boat centre, you have to park on the road. Mill Road has limited 2 hour parking only. However, if you carry on to the end of Mill road you can park on Willes Rd.
Will need to portage canoe through a small children's park to reach Leam Boat Centre. They charge £1.50 to launch but this include use of their changing room and toilets.
Upstream is a lazy paddle with no pubs for the 3 to 4 miles we paddled
There is a sign that says "No Boats Past Here" but that refers to rowing boats rented out by the Leam Boat centre as past the sign is not deep enough for those.
To go downstream, you have to portage the weir and launch.
