Three Rivers Race

Knownas ‘Europe’s toughest inland sailing race’, the Three Rivers Race takes place on June 3-4 this year. The course of this Horning Sailing Club event covers over 50 miles and three different rivers – the Bure, Ant and Thurne– and sees competitors having to lower masts to navigate the three bridges at Potter Heigham and Acle. Each has up to 24 hours to complete the course. The start of the race is the best time for spectators to view the fleet in one concentrated mass, waiting in groups of around 10 boats upstream of the start line at Horning Sailing Club.
