New York whitewater - Deer River, Essex / Warren County

Essex / Warren county, Fourteenth Road to North River section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS III-V     2 miles
  The beautiful scenery of Essex / Warren County and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream make the trip here worthwhile. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. Getting a good workout and just hanging out with mother nature have a lot of people coming here. This is a pretty short section so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times. 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. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in this state tend to be more challenging than the national average, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that rivers here are not as easy as elsewhere. There are no other sections to paddle along Deer River than the Fourteenth
Road to North River section.
