Riverside Campground to above Upper Mesa Falls section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS III-V 11 miles
Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Idaho is often more difficult than elsewhere, so keep in mind that a lot of the rivers here are not suitable for beginners. The beautiful scenery of Fremont County and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. The put-in is not too far from Rexburg, as you can see on the road map further down. Getting your paddling muscles activated and just being out on the river for a while will make you glad you came. This is not the only paddling stretch in this river system,
there are others too. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. This stretch is long enough for an overnight trip if you take your time, so pack your camp stove. The Riverside Campground to above Upper Mesa Falls stretch of Henrys Fork in Idaho is 11 miles long and has been
rated as a class III-V section by American Whitewater. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way around here you'll find a large number of good places. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick.
