Dorena Dam to Scaling Station Bridge section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II-III 5 miles
we went in inflatable rafts down this river, and my friend got screwed up. Says Ryan
This section of Row River in Lane County is 5 miles long and is a class II-III section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. The wonderful Lane County scenery and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water will make you feel great. If you're coming from Eugene-Springfield it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. The Dorena Dam to Scaling Station Bridge section is one of a few
paddling sections in this river system. There are nice comfortable hotels here, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. On this section you do get some distance, suitable for an afternoon trip. The campgrounds here at Row River are pretty good. Getting
a good workout and spending some quality time in nature are sure to keep you coming back for more. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there are lots of good rivers for that around here. If you've been out of state whitewater rafting and kayaking you might find the rivers here more demanding, so you'd better keep in mind that a lot of the rivers here are not suitable for beginners.
