Selby – for York to Leeds

This cruise starts or finishes in Clarence Dock Leeds, home of the Royal Armouries, and passes down the Aire and Calder navigation with its large fully automated locks, a pass along the Aire and Calder River and then up the little used Selby Canal with its unique features.

We pass through a variety of countryside and some absolutely massive locks that have to be seen to be believed for those used to the regular sized locks on the canal system.

We stop at Selby lock looking out onto the tidal River Ouse, a short taxi or train ride will take you into York itself.

This is an interesting cruise passing through varied countryside and the mix of river and canal.
