Grafton county, Woodstock section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS II     4.25 miles
  The put-in is not too far from Laconia, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. The average New Hampshire whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be harder to run than those in other states, so don't forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable. This stretch of Pemigewasset River is 4.25 miles long and is a class II section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. Whether you're whitewater
    rafting or kayaking around here you'll find a large number of good spots. This is a pretty decent length section, it's perfect for a one day trip. Great exercise and spending some quality time in nature are great attractions
for lots of people. The beauty of the White Mountains is a great plus for this river. This river system is full of great paddling stretches, the Woodstock stretch is just one of them. The nature scenery of Grafton County and the water flowing gracefully down Pemigewasset River beats anything. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. No need to look hard for hotels, but if you don’t have reservations you might  
end up sleeping in your car.
