The boat towing track (portage railway) that bypasses Kaarneenkoski rapid is about 200 metres long. The track connects Lake Niskajärvi with Lake Lentua. 

In Kuhmo, the Kainuun Tervareitti water hiking trail has several passages to make it easier to get past challenging or impassable rapids.

Kaarneenkoski rapid is the southernmost rapid of Niva village's currents and a very challenging one. It can only be paddled at high water. Therefore, a proper and functional towing track has been built to facilitate the passage.

A boat portage track or railway, has been built here, where paddling equipment or a light rowing boat can be pulled from one lake to another. On the platform wagon, moved by human power, the equipment can be transported conveniently and relatively effortlessly.
