Mount Hope River Description
The Mount Hope River is formed at a swampy drainage about 2 miles (3.2 km) north of Westford, Connecticut and flows about 14.5 miles (23.3 km) to Mansfield Hollow Lake just south of Atwoodville, Connecticut. A popular whitewater paddling route starts along Route 89 about 1/10th of a mile north of the junction with U.S. Route 44. After about 1-mile (1.6 km) of mostly quickwater, the river flows through occasional Class II whitewater with difficult Class III whitewater near Mansfield Hollow Lake for a total of about 7 miles (11 km) of whitewater paddling.
