Wallowa River to Grande Ronde River section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II-III 46 miles
Whitewater rafting and kayaking in this state is often more difficult than elsewhere, so don't forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable. This stretch of Grande Ronde River is 46 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class II-III section of whitewater. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. The nature scenery of Oregon and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water will make you feel great. The campgrounds
here at Grande Ronde River are pretty good. There are some good stretches to paddle in this river system, the Wallowa River to Grande Ronde River stretch is one of them. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking around here you won't find a large number of other rivers. A section
like this is is of course not run in a single day, so it looks like you will be camping out.
