Fleming Meadows trailhead to Happy Valley Road section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS IV+ 10.1 miles
The wonderful California scenery and the playfulness of the water make the trip here worthwhile. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in California tend to be more challenging than the national average, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that rivers here are less forgiving. The beautiful Northern Sierra Nevada scenery is an added bonus. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, there are lots of good spots for that around here. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. A good workout and spending
some quality time in nature are great reasons to come. The Fleming Meadows trailhead to Happy Valley Road stretch is the only paddling stretch along Camp Creek. If you hurry you can run this stretch in a day but why not make it an overnighter, so why not pack your camping stuff
too. This section of Camp Creek in California is 10.1 miles long and it is classified as a class IV+ section by American Whitewater. There are nice comfortable hotels here, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set.
