1000 Islands section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS I-III(IV) 1.5 miles
The scenic beauty of Wisconsin and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream are reasons enough to come here and paddle. The 1000 Islands section of Fox River is 1.5 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class I-III(IV) section. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Wisconsin is often easier than elsewhere, so keep in mind that lots of rivers here are good for beginners. A bit of exercise and just being out on the river for a while have a lot of people coming here. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there
are not so many other good places for that around here. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. 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.
There are no other stretches to paddle along Fox River than the 1000 Islands stretch. The put-in location is a short drive from Appleton, please print out a copy of the road map further down the page so you won’t get lost. This is a bit of a short stretch so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times.
