Arizona whitewater - Little Colorado River, Coconino County
Coconino
county,
Below Grand Falls to above Black Falls section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside Arizona you might find the rivers here a bit more challenging, so you'd better keep in mind that many runs in this state are not easy. The natural beauty of Coconino County and the cool fresh water are reasons enough to come here and paddle. Getting your paddling muscles activated and a chance to spend some time outdoors are great reasons to come. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. 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. The Below Grand Falls to above Black Falls section is the only paddling section along Little Colorado River. This stretch has enough mileage for an overnight trip, so why not pack your camp stove too.
