Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in this state tend to be more forgiving than the national average, so if you're not from around here don't forget that many of the rivers here are not very demanding. The nature scenery of Arkansas and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water will make you feel great. The starting point is not too far from Hot Springs, as you can see on the road map further down. This section is very short so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over. Getting a good
workout and just hanging out with mother nature are great attractions for lots of people. This river system has a few good paddling stretches and the Rockport Ledge section is one of them. The beautiful Ouachita Mountains scenery is an added bonus. If you're a camper you can camp
at one of the great campgrounds nearby. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, around here you'll find a large number of good places.
