Grafton Dells

Just downstream lies Grafton Dells. This is a fairly scenic and rather popular stretch of river for novice canoe trips. Riffles and rips (depending upon water level) will be found as the river splits around a pair of large (6-7 acre) islands. Wildlife is commonly seen while boating this reach (deer, heron, turtles, etc.). Deadfall and strainers may be a problem in one or more channels.

For those who do proceed downstream, the recommended take-out is at Hwy.T, since the river becomes increasingly flat and slow below there, containing no additional whitewater or swiftwater.
