The Ouse
The River Ouse winds through North Yorkshire's heartland, forming where the Swale and Ure rivers meet and stretching some 129 miles through the Vale of York. Dropping anchor here puts you in the middle of genuinely ancient English river country, with the city of York — one of Britain's most historic — sitting along its banks, packed with Viking heritage, the iconic Shambles, and York Minster.
