My favorite routers to use with React at the moment are redux-first-router (define a route map, and an object in your Redux store gets automatically two-way synced with browser location state; your 'routing' is actually just a switch statement over the current location state), and Next.js (make some component files under pages/ and they get automatically rendered as routes; wrap a filename in brackets and it's used as a query param value wildcard). Both have advantages and disadvantages but are very low-mental-overhead in practice.
