Indian River to North River section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS III-IV 14 miles
This section of Hudson River is 14 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class III-IV section. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this is an area with plenty of spots for that. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in this state is often more difficult than elsewhere, so if you're not from around here don't forget that rivers here are not as easy as elsewhere. This is one of a small number of paddling sections in this river system, there are a few others
too. The Adirondack Mountains scenery is wonderful. Getting some good exercise and spending some quality time in nature are great reasons to come. If you hurry you can run this section in a day but why not make it an overnighter, so why not pack your camping stuff too. The beautiful
scenery of New York and the water flowing gracefully down Hudson River attract people from near and far. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination.
