Westfield River wet and wild adventures
Forty-three miles of crisp whitewater can be found in this, one of three nationally recognized Massachusetts waterways. The region is decidedly rugged, with much of the forestry completely untouched and well inhabited by native wildlife.

The state’s finest upbeat canoeing and kayaking can be done right here, between the thick foliaged banks. And you’ll notice the trout enjoy it as much as the water sports enthusiasts. Other normally unseen animals, such as black bears and bald eagles, reside in the regions beyond the river walls. New trails are being built that will make the river and surrounding land more accessible without being obtrusive. Once out of the pure, natural region, you’ll notice some local state parks that gladly take in river riders.
