Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Oregon are harder than the national norm, so don't forget that a large number of rivers in this state are not easy.

A good workout and just being out on the river
for a while will have 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. The Lower Five Miles to Clackamas River section is one of many
paddling sections in this river system. The beautiful Central Cascade Range scenery is an added bonus. This stretch is mid length, suitable for an afternoon trip. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby.
