The average Oregon whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master than those in other states, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that the rivers in this state are less manageable. Getting your paddling muscles activated and spending some quality time in nature are great attractions
for lots of people. The beautiful Coast Ranges scenery is an added bonus. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. There are a few other stretches in this river system that can be paddled as well. This section is long enough to enjoy a good non stop paddle, suitable for an
afternoon trip. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, this is an area with not too many other spots for that. This section of Coquille River - South Fork in Oregon is 6.3 miles long and has been rated as a class II-IV section by American Whitewater.
