I am planning a trip to Weogufka Creek in a couple of weeks. Any info. regarding trees down or other obstructions would be helpful. We will do County Rd. 15 to Low Water Bridge only. Says David Moore

Put in at coosa county management 119 and get out at the bridge is a good short trip with lots of sights... Says James Darby

The scenic beauty of Alabama and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water have people coming here. If you've been out of state whitewater rafting and kayaking you might find the rivers here more demanding, so if
    you're visiting here do keep in mind that a lot of the rivers here are not suitable for beginners. If you're coming from Talladega-Sylacauga it's not a long drive at all to the put-in location, if you're not familiar with the area there's a road map further down the page. This
stretch is mid length, it's perfect for a one day trip. The Low Water Bridge to Ford section of Weogufka Creek in Alabama is 9.6 miles long and it is classified as a class I-II section by American Whitewater. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, there are not so many other good rivers for that around here. There are no other stretches to paddle along Weogufka Creek than the Low Water Bridge to Ford stretch. Great exercise and spending some quality time in nature have people coming from far and near. Not too many hotels  
nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick.
