CLASS III 1.25 miles
This section of Souhegan River in Hillsborough County is 1.25 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class III section. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in New Hampshire tend to be more challenging than the national average, so don't forget that a lot of the rivers here are not suitable for beginners. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there are lots of good places for that around here. There are a few other sections in this river system that can be paddled as well. This section is very short so you'd better be prepared
to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times. 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. For all you camping people there are campgrounds nearby. The scenic beauty of New Hampshire
and the cool fresh water beats anything. The starting point is not too far from Manchester-Nashua, please print out a copy of the road map further down the page so you won’t get lost. A bit of exercise and just hanging out with mother nature are sure to keep you coming back for more.
