The Norfolk Broads
Routes
Starting from Wroxham, a bustling village with good shopping facilities, pubs and restaurants, you can head off upstream through woodland on each bank; stangely enclosed, but full of interest, until you get to Belaugh where the countryside opens up as the river meanders through a shallow valley to coltishall and its lovely green.
Downstream is busy, but picturesque, with open waters like Wroxam Broad, Salhouse Broad, Blackhorse Broad and Malthouse Broad, into which you may slip unnoticed to idle away an hour, an evening, or even a day or so . If you want to travel further afield, then there are over 150 miles of wonderful waterways for you to explore.

The Northern Rivers
The River Bure is navigable for 59km and flows from Coltishall to Great Yarmouth, where it joins the River Yare. The wooded banks of the upper reaches give way to fens fringed with reeds and grassy meadows.
The River Ant, a tributary of the River Bure is narrow, shallow and twisting and leads to more remote areas of the Broads.
The River Thurne, another tributary of the Bure has a fascinating flatness; it is surrounded by almost treeless meadows dotted with windmills.
The Southern Rivers
The River Waveney flows for 35km from Beccles north east to the River Yare through beautiful countryside.
The River Yare flows from Norwich through hilly and beautifully wooded banks, not unlike the upper Thames. In its lower reaches it passes through wonderful fens and marshes.
