Mohawk River Road to Hileman Road section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II-III 5.8 miles
If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside this state you might find the rivers here a bit more challenging, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that lots of rivers here are not for beginners. The put-in location is a reasonable drive from Albany-Lebanon, as you can see on the road map further down. This is the only paddling stretch along Mohawk River. 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. No matter if you're whitewater rafting
or kayaking this area has a large number of paddling spots. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. The Central Cascade Range scenery is wonderful. Getting your paddling muscles activated and just hanging out with mother nature have people coming
from far and near. On this section you do get some distance, suitable for an afternoon trip. The natural beauty of Oregon and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream will make you feel great. This section of Mohawk River is 5.8 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class II-III section of whitewater.
