Oneida
county,
Rhinelander section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II-III 0.3 miles
The average Wisconsin whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit easier to master than those in other states, so you'd better keep in mind that rivers here are not as hard as elsewhere. If you're coming from Merrill 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. This is an extremely short stretch so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over. Great exercise and just hanging out with mother nature are great attractions for lots of people. You might be into whitewater
rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, this is an area with not too many other rivers for that. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. The nature scenery of Oneida County and the water flowing gracefully down Wisconsin River are in themselves reasons enough to come
here to paddle. The Rhinelander stretch of Wisconsin River is 0.3 miles long and has been rated as a class II-III section by American Whitewater. There are a few other sections in this river system that can be paddled as well. No shortage of good hotels, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick.
