Texas whitewater, Blanco River Blanco Hays county, Blanco to Wimberly section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.   CLASS I-V(V+)     35 miles   I just went from Wayside Drive on the Blanco to R.R.12 Bridge. Flow was 800 cfs; some nice rapids and a few good drops; however, there are several log jams that stretch across the entire river, and a lot of destruction the whole way. One huge log jam right after a strong rapid that is very dangerous; no way to pass through, must go around. Make sure you have a spray skirt. Says Darren Just got back from a three day trip down this river.     It was very scenic and beautiful. All of my crew were quite beat up after this trip though. At flows around 400 cfs there are some serious rapids on this section. There were many damns and there was also a fence constructed across the river just upstream from the Narrows. Lots of debris from the previous fence was found everywhere downstream along the river, so be careful not to get caught in those. The Narrows was downright freaky, and be prepared to carry boats and gear a long distance to get around this hazard. All in all it was a great trip. Says Todd Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Texas is often easier than elsewhere, so keep in mind that   rivers in this state are not as hard as elsewhere. The nature scenery of Blanco Hays County and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water make the trip here worthwhile. The Blanco to Wimberly stretch of Blanco River in Texas is 35 miles long and it is classified as a class I-V(V+) section by American Whitewater. A good workout and a chance to spend some time outdoors have people coming from far and near. If you're coming from San Antonio it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, as you can see on the road map further down. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, around here you'll find a large number of good rivers.
