NH Route 101 Bridge to Wilton section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS III 1.25 miles
The natural beauty of New Hampshire and the playfulness of the water are reasons enough to come here and paddle. This section of Souhegan River is 1.25 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class III section. The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master in this state than those in other states, so you'd better keep in mind that quite a few of the sections here are not easy. The campgrounds here at Souhegan River are pretty good. Great exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors will make you
glad you came. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way there are lots of good spots for that around here. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but if you don’t have reservations
you might end up sleeping in your car. This river system has a few good paddling sections and the NH Route 101 Bridge to Wilton section is one of them. If you're coming from Manchester-Nashua it's not a long drive at all to the put-in location, as you can see on the road map further down.
Briefly about the general area: All the water falling down from the sky makes Souhegan River a wet location; the month with most of the rain is November, and the driest month is September. Go for a hike on the Mitchell Hill Road. During the summertime at Souhegan
River highs are ordinarily in the 80's while night lows are ordinarily in the 50's. All through the wintertime the highs are ordinarily in the 20's with winter lows in the 10's overnight here at Souhegan River.
