The River Esk rises on the uplands of the North York Moors National Park and is the only major river in the county of Yorkshire that drains directly into the North Sea.
The source of the Esk is upstream of Westerdale, where a series of becks known as the Esklets merge to form the River Esk.
At this point the river is approximately 15m wide, and in normal summer flows the depths vary between 20cm and 30cm.
