Texas whitewater - Brazos River, Brazos County

Brazos county, Hidalgo Falls section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS II     0.2 miles
  The starting location is a reasonable drive from Brenham, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. The scenic beauty of Brazos County and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream beats anything. If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside Texas you might find the rivers here a bit more manageable, so if you're not from around here don't forget that many runs in this state are very easy. This section of Brazos River in Brazos County is 0.2 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a
    class II section. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. The Hidalgo Falls stretch is the only paddling stretch along Brazos River. A bit of exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors will make you glad you came. 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.
