Kayaking on Saco River - from Bartlett NH to Conway NH


Rating: Three Stars - This river is what sucked me into kayaking. River is nice flowing with the White Mountains on the horizon. Variation along the route, tree-lined stretches, some farms, occassional residences. River has many spots to beach and break. Love this river.

  Put in at West Side Road
  off Route 302 at Glen NH.
Take out at intersection of Routes
  16 and 113 in Conway NH.
Estimated distance
  = 9 miles
