If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside Maine you might find the rivers here a bit more manageable, so you'd better keep in mind that many runs in this state are
    very easy. If you're coming from Augusta-Waterville it's not a long drive at all to the put-in location. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. No shortage of good hotels, but you'd better
reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, this is an area with plenty of spots for that. The natural beauty of Penobscot County and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. A good workout and just being out on the river for a while will make you glad you came.
