The sections for whitewater rafting and kayaking here in California are often more challenging than in other states, so you'd better keep in mind that many of the sections here are not safe for beginners. Getting a good workout and spending some quality time in nature will make you glad you came. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. There are plenty of other sections in this river system that can be paddled as well. The beautiful scenery of California and the playfulness of the water have people coming here. Whether
you're whitewater rafting or kayaking around here you'll find a large number of good spots. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. This section
is long enough for an overnight trip if you take your time, so go ahead and pack your camping stuff. This stretch of Trinity River in California is 23.6 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class II-III section of whitewater.
