CLASS III     0.1 miles
  This section of Coosa River in Floyd County is 0.1 miles long and is a class III section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Georgia tend to be more challenging than the national average, so better not forget that rivers here are less forgiving. Getting your paddling muscles activated and spending some quality time in nature will have you coming back for more. 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. Coosa River doesn't have a lot of paddling sections, the Lock and Dam section is the only one. This stretch is very short so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby.
