San Angelo to Concho section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS I-II 36 miles
This stretch of Concho River in Texas is 36 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class I-II section of whitewater. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in this state tend to be more forgiving than the national average, so keep in mind that rivers here are not as hard as elsewhere. Concho River doesn't have a lot of paddling sections, the San Angelo to Concho section is the only one. A stretch of this length does require some preparations, so it looks like you will be camping out. Getting your paddling muscles activated and spending
some quality time in nature 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. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can
camp. The beautiful scenery of Texas and the playfulness of the water are reasons enough to come here and paddle.
