The natural beauty of Maine and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water beats anything.

This section has enough mileage for an overnight trip, so pack your camp stove. The put-in location is a short drive from Lewiston-Auburn, please print out a copy of the road map further down the page so you won’t get lost. If you're a camper you can camp
at one of the great campgrounds nearby. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way there are lots of good rivers for that around here. There are some good sections to paddle in this river system, the West Paris to South Paris section is one of them. Not
too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set. Getting your paddling muscles activated and spending some quality time in nature will have you coming back for more.
