Explore the rivers of the Westcountry...
From Roman times to the present day, Westcountry rivers have been an ever-present thread running through our communities, our culture and our heritage. Ever increasingly, we have come to realise how wonderful it is to spend time on, in or near a river and they are so often the backdrop to our fondest memories of days outdoors and being active.
We are not always aware of it, but the natural world we live in sustains us all as we live our lives. Spending time in nature, breathing fresh air, watching light reflected on water or enjoying a moment among wildlife, makes us happier, healthier and perhaps more prosperous as well.
