The put-in is not too far from Springfield. The sections for whitewater rafting and kayaking |
here in Massachusetts are often more forgiving than in other states, so you'd better keep in mind that rivers in this state are not as hard as elsewhere. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting
| or kayaking, either way in this general area you'll find lots of paddling rivers. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. Getting some good exercise and just hanging out with mother nature will make you glad you came.
