Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Washington is often tougher than elsewhere, so if you're not from around here don't forget that many of the rivers here are not very forgiving.

Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way in this general area you won't find many other paddling rivers. A good workout and spending some quality time in nature will have you coming back for more. This section is long enough to enjoy a good non stop paddle,
good for a one day paddling trip. If you'll be staying in a hotel you're in luck, lodging is available very near the river, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. The campgrounds here at Spokane River are pretty good.
