Yorkshire River Adventures is a family run activity centre providing great days out on the river.

We have a fleet of ‘Old Town’ Canadian canoes, specially designed for recreational paddling on the still waters of the rivers Ure, Swale and Ouse.

Whether you wish to spend a couple of hours paddling up and down our stretch of the Ouse or a more adventurous day out paddling from Boroughbridge downstream to our centre at Thorpe Underwood or even a weekend camping experience, we have it covered.

The river is a fantastic place to get away from the crowds and the noise of everyday life. It is full of wildlife, from swans and ducks to kingfishers, herons and even otters……we have them living with us at the centre!!

Take a picnic and enjoy one of the many beaches along the river bank or there are one or two great pubs to visit.

Why not try a bit of fishing. You could be catching all sorts of fish like perch and pike. With a bit of notice, we can arrange a licence for you and if you need the tackle, just ask.
