Grand Rapids section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
How long is the Maumee river and what lake does it pass through Says Jamesa Mackey
The natural beauty of Ohio and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream make the trip here worthwhile. The starting point is not too far from Toledo, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. Getting some good exercise and just hanging out with mother nature are sure to keep you coming back for more. 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. If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside this state you might find the rivers here a bit more forgiving, so keep in mind that the rivers in this state are less demanding. This is a pretty short section so it's not like you're
gonna spend hours on the river in one stretch. The campgrounds here at Maumee River are pretty good. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, this area has a pretty small number of paddling spots. The Grand Rapids stretch is one of a few paddling stretches in this river system.
