This section of the Saco River is very popular in the summer months, so be prepared for crowds during that time. During the spring, high waters usually force this into a one-way trip, however, at some other times the water is slow enough to allow upstream travel for those with no shuttle options or are novice paddlers. On this route, there should be little-to-no signs of development, but only natural scenery. One can also detour and visit Pleasant Pond while paddling, but be courteous since the pond is located within private property. There are usually fees associated with parking at many of the take-out areas by the Route 160 bridge.
