CLASS III-IV     1 miles
  The starting location is a reasonable drive from Auburn-Opelika, if you're not familiar with the area there's a road map further down the page. The natural beauty of Lee County and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream make the trip here worthwhile. The average Alabama whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master than those in other states, so don't forget that rivers here are not as easy as elsewhere. This is a very short section so no need to bring snacks. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but
    do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. Getting a good workout and just being out on the river for a while have a lot of people coming here. There are no other sections to paddle along Little Uchee than the Auburn Road to Bishops Bridge section.
Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way this is an area with not too many other spots for that. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp. This section of Little Uchee in Alabama is 1 miles long and is a class III-IV section of whitewater according to American Whitewater.
