So, Canoe, Kayak, or SUP, if you love paddling and care about waterways, join our community today. Post navigationīritish Canoeing membership comes with a waterways licence. The WhiteWater course is due to be open for events in 2020. The large weir, hyrdro screws and whitewater course can be portaged on both sides: on the left via the lock, or on the right hand bank, via a slipway (50m upstream of course). Things to look out for on the UreĬare must be taken at Linton on Ouse, where the River Ure turns into the River Ouse. A small donation is requested to help with upkeep. It is worth noting that British Canoeing own a small field in Ripon where paddlers can launch and land. There are large populations of badgers, roe deer, red foxes and rabbits in the valley too.Īmong the variety of birds that can be seen in the valley are golden plovers, curlews and oystercatchers.įish populations along the River Ure include brown trout, grayling, barbel, chub, roach and perch and more recently salmon.Īs the river is a spate river before Ripon where it becomes the navigation, please remember to paddle mindfully and with respect for other river users. Wildlife on the River Ureĭiffering habitats along the river have their own populations of flora such as cranesbill, bistort, pignut and buttercup. Take care to research the stretch you are paddling before you head out. This means much of it is only suitable for experienced paddlers. The river ranges from grade 1 to grade 5 white water. If you plan on paddling further up the river, above Ripon, there are several sections to note.

The Ripon to Linton stretch is a navigable stretch, meaning it’s a wider, flatter part of the river and more suited to those looking for a leisurely adventure. The River Ure is a large river in Yorkshire, stretching 74 miles in total. For the Grade 1 sections head to the wider parts of the river. From here to Wensley Bridge can reach Grade 4 in high waters, but otherwise the rest of the river is a lovely Grade 2-3. The most notable section is the Grade 5 rapids at Aysgarth Falls.

Restoration of the historic pier off West Street is part of the development plansĪs well as housing on both north and south sites, the plans include the pier's restoration with public access, a new footway and help for pedestrians along West Street, a new flood protection wall designed to provide river views and a riverside amenity area. Part of the pier still stands but has fallen into disrepair and not been in use for decades. Pleasure trippers arriving at the station would then cross, via a brick-built viaduct, to the iron pier which enabled passengers to board ferries and other boats to destinations further down river or across into Essex. The site incorporates land either side of West Street at the junction with Stuart Road, part of which was home to Gravesend West Street station.
