CLASS II-III 2.9 miles
The Twin Mountain to Pierce bridge stretch of Ammonoosuc River in Grafton County is 2.9 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class II-III section. The scenic beauty of New Hampshire and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream attract people from near and far. There are plenty of other stretches in this river system that can be paddled as well. The average New Hampshire whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be harder to run than those in other states, so better not forget that a lot of the rivers here are not suitable
for beginners. If you're coming from Berlin it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, as you can see on the road map further down. No shortage of good hotels, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. This is a pretty short section
so no need to bring snacks. The White Mountains scenery is wonderful. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, this is an area with plenty of places for that. Getting your paddling muscles activated and just being out on the river for a while have people coming from far and near. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground.
