Logging Road to Lake Superior section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS I(IV) 13.8 miles
This stretch of Montreal River is 13.8 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class I(IV) section. The nature scenery of Keweenaw County and the cool fresh water have people coming here. This stretch has enough mileage for an overnight trip, so pack your camping stuff. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside Michigan you might find the rivers here a bit more manageable,
so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that many of the rivers here are not very demanding. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this is an area with not too many other rivers for that. Getting some good
exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors have a lot of people coming here. Montreal River doesn't have a lot of paddling stretches, the Logging Road to Lake Superior stretch is the only one.
