Route 25 to Bearcamp River section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS V 1.4 miles
The Route 25 to Bearcamp River section of Cold Brook in Carrol County is 1.4 miles long and is a class V section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. The starting location is a reasonable drive from Laconia, as you can see on the road map further down. The natural beauty of Carrol County and the playfulness of the water will make you feel great. Cold Brook doesn't have a lot of paddling stretches, the Route 25 to Bearcamp River stretch is the only one. This stretch is very short so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over. For all you
camping people there are campgrounds nearby. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way
this is an area with plenty of rivers for that. The White Mountains scenery is wonderful. A good workout and just hanging out with mother nature are great reasons to come. If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside this state you might find the rivers here a bit more challenging, so if you're not from around here don't forget that lots of rivers here are not for beginners.
