Grafton county, Sandwich Notch to Campton Hollow section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS II-IV     5 miles
  The scenic beauty of Grafton County and the playfulness of the water are reasons enough to come here and paddle. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in New Hampshire tend to be more challenging than the national average, so don't forget that a large number of rivers in this state are not easy. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way there are lots of good rivers for that around here. Great exercise and just being out on the river for a while are great reasons to come. The Sandwich Notch to Campton Hollow section is the
    only paddling section along Beebe River. This is a pretty decent length section, it's perfect for a one day trip. This stretch of Beebe River is 5 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class II-IV section of whitewater. There are campgrounds quite near the river
where you can camp. If you're coming from Laconia it's not a long drive at all to the put-in location, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set. The beautiful White Mountains scenery is an added bonus.
