The Lambertville Wing Dam section of Delaware River in Hunterdon / Bucks County is 0.25 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class II+ section. The nature scenery of Hunterdon / Bucks County and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream are reasons enough to come here and paddle. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this is an area with plenty of places for that. There are a few other sections in this |
river system that can be paddled as well. This is a very short stretch so better bring some good walking shoes. No shortage of good hotels, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. The
| average New Jersey whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be easier to run than those in other states, so keep in mind that lots of rivers in this state are good for beginners. A bit of exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors have people coming from far and near. If you're coming from Trenton-Ewing it's not a long drive at all to the starting location.
