New Mexico whitewater - Rio Pueblo, San Juan Mountains, Taos County

Taos county, Rio Lucio to Confluence Rio Grande section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 
  The beautiful scenery of New Mexico and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water make the trip here worthwhile. This section has enough mileage for an overnight trip, so why not pack your camp stove too. The average New Mexico whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be easier to run than those in other states, so if you're not from around here don't forget that rivers here are less demanding. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular
    destination. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. Great exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors have a lot of people coming here. The Rio Lucio to Confluence Rio Grande section is the only paddling section along Rio Pueblo. The San Juan
Mountains scenery is wonderful.
