Oak Heights Road to Tallapoosa river section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II(IV) 1.5 miles
The Oak Heights Road to Tallapoosa river section of Stone Creek in Tallapoosa County is 1.5 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class II(IV) section. If you've been out of state whitewater rafting and kayaking you might find the rivers here more demanding, so you'd better keep in mind that rivers here are not as easy as elsewhere. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way this area has a pretty small number of paddling rivers. This is a bit of a short stretch so it's not like you're gonna spend
hours on the river in one stretch. The Oak Heights Road to Tallapoosa river section is the only paddling section along Stone Creek. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. The campgrounds here at Stone
Creek are pretty good. Great exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors are great reasons to come. The starting point is not too far from Tuskegee, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that.
