Loop Road to Beason Cove Road section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS V+ 2.2 miles
Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Alabama tend to be more challenging than the national average, so don't forget that lots of rivers here are not for beginners. This section of Gulf Creek in Alabama is 2.2 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class V+ section of whitewater. This is a short paddling stretch so no need to bring snacks. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. The beautiful scenery of -blank- County and the cool fresh water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. You might have to settle for a hotel
a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. Getting a good workout and spending some quality time in nature will make you glad you came. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking,
either way this is an area with plenty of rivers for that. The Loop Road to Beason Cove Road section is the only paddling section along Gulf Creek.
