Salmon River Dam to Bennett Bridge section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
If you're coming from Syracuse it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, as you can see on the road map further down. The nature scenery of New York and the playfulness of the water beats anything. This stretch is short so better bring some good walking shoes.

has a large number of paddling rivers. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. There are a few other sections in this river system that can be paddled as well. There's camping available near Salmon
River.
