The Newhalen River (Dena'ina: Nughiltnu) is a Script error: No such module "convert". stream in the Lake and Peninsula Borough of the U.S. state of Alaska.[1] Beginning at Six Mile Lake, the Newhalen flows south to enter Iliamna Lake about Script error: No such module "convert". south of Iliamna.[2]
Alaska Fishing describes the river as "the major pathway for a mind-boggling migration of sockeye salmon"[3] that ascend the stream in early summer. The main game fish in addition to sockeye are rainbow trout.[3]
It is possible to float parts of the Newhalen in rafts and kayaks. However, waterfalls rated Class V (extremely difficult) on the International Scale of River Difficulty and other sections of whitewater rated Class IV (very difficult) mean that the river "is rarely run in its entirety".[4] The first Script error: No such module "convert". below Six Mile Lake are Class I (easy), and there is a take-out point, Upper Landing, at the end of this stretch. More difficult water begins below Upper Landing.[4]
