There are no overnight moorings available on the River Foss,
so it is necessary to book both passages. It is, however, an
attractive mile-and-a-half of secluded waterway for a return trip
within the day. As there are no winding holes at the head of
navigation it could be better to travel in pairs, tied nose to tail
to avoid reversing the whole of the return trip
