Ross Creek Trail to confluence of National Forest Kings section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS V+ 6.3 miles
The Ross Creek Trail to confluence of National Forest Kings stretch of Dinkey Creek in California is 6.3 miles long and has been rated as a class V+ section by American Whitewater. The average California whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be harder to run than those in other states, so better not forget that many of the sections here are not safe for beginners. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way this is an area with plenty of rivers for that. A bit of exercise and just hanging out with
mother nature will make you glad you came. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. This section is long enough to enjoy a good non stop paddle, good for
a one day paddling trip. The beautiful scenery of Fresno County and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream will make you feel great. There are so many sections to paddle in this river system, the Ross Creek Trail to confluence of National Forest Kings section is just one of many. Whitewater paddling here in the Central Sierra Nevada is a great experience. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground.
