CR45 to Cascade River State Park section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS IV-V 3.5 miles
The nature scenery of Cook County and the water flowing gracefully down Cascade River will make you feel great. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, this is an area with plenty of places for that. Great exercise and just being out on the river for a while are great reasons to come. 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. The CR45 to Cascade River State Park section is one of a few paddling sections in this river
system. If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside Minnesota you might find the rivers here a bit more challenging, so if you're not from around here don't forget that many runs in this state are not easy. This section is quite short so you'll have to walk back to the
start over and over. The CR45 to Cascade River State Park stretch of Cascade River in Minnesota is 3.5 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class IV-V section.
