CLASS II-V+     7.5 miles
  The scenic beauty of New York and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master in this state than those in other states, so you'd better keep in mind that many of the rivers here are not very forgiving. The Sylvans Falls to Parishville stretch of St. Regis River - West Branch in New York is 7.5 miles long and has been rated as a class II-V+ section by American Whitewater. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive
    a bit to get to one, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way there are lots of good spots for that around here. Getting a good workout and spending some
quality time in nature are sure to keep you coming back for more. If you're coming from Ogdensburg-Massena it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, as you can see on the road map further down.
