Welcome to OSM! A river isn’t a road relation, please read https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:route and https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Rivers !

Hello 5359, the tag waterway=river is well defined on the map but isn't routable. Is there any way to use the waterway=river, can I measure its length and produce a route with it?

Hello benjamin saunders, this is a problem of the software. Routing software fetch the ways with the tag highway=%, not waterway=%. To calculate the length of a river please read https://skorasaurus.wordpress.com/2014/05/07/how-i-measured-clevelands-length-of-roads-with-postgis-and-osm/ (as one of many ways).If you works with perl you cab use https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/4014/how-can-i-find-the-total-length-of-roads-in-an-area
