Kayaking in Maine: Seboomook Class 3 Whitewater, Penobscot River

There’s so much to do from our Katahdin Adventure Base Camp, hiking the Appalachian Trail, exploring Baxter State Park, climbing Maine’s greatest mountain, paddling or fishing right from the Katahdin Adventure Basecamp at Big Moose Inn, and of course whitewater rafting on the Penobscot River.

Whitewater Kayaking the Seboomook Section of the Penobscot River

Recently, a few guests adventured to the headwaters of the Penobscot River! Piloting their own inflatable kayaks, they splashed through a couple miles of Seboomook class III whitewater. Complete with sightings of eagles, moose, and spectacular scenery, the trip served as an outstanding warm-up for their rafting trip on the West Branch of the Penobscot.
