  The wonderful Alaska scenery and the cool fresh water have people coming here. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Alaska are harder than the national norm, so don't forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable. Getting a good workout and just hanging out with mother nature have people coming from far and near. This section of Nabesna River in Alaska is 81 miles long and it is classified as a class II section by American Whitewater. For all you camping people there are campgrounds nearby. There are no other stretches to paddle along
    Nabesna River than the Nabesna Glacier to Northway Indian Village stretch. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car.
