Whitewater rafting and kayaking in California is often tougher than elsewhere, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that rivers here are less forgiving. The beautiful scenery of California and the playfulness of the water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. Great exercise and just being out on the river for a while will have you coming back for more. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. The beautiful Klamath Mountains scenery is an added bonus. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit
to get to one, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. On this section you do get some distance, you can easily run it on an afternoon. This stretch of Beegum Creek in California is 7 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class
