Sunol to Niles Junction Close to Fremont section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS III 4.3 miles
The natural beauty of California and the cool fresh water are reasons enough to come here and paddle. If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside this state you might find the rivers here a bit more challenging, so you'd better keep in mind that many runs in this state are not easy. The Sunol to Niles Junction Close to Fremont section of Alameda Creek in Alameda County is 4.3 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class III section. A good workout and just being out on the river for a while have people coming from far
and near. For all you camping people there are campgrounds nearby. The starting location is a reasonable drive from San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. There are nice comfortable hotels here, but you'd better reserve
in advance because these hotels fill up quick. There are no other stretches to paddle along Alameda Creek than the Sunol to Niles Junction Close to Fremont stretch. This is a pretty decent length section, suitable for an afternoon trip. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way this area has a pretty small number of paddling rivers.
