Lula Lake Road to Chattooga Valley Road section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS V+ 2.72 miles
When I went to Lula Falls, I was amazed! It was so beautiful. It was so much fun. As soon as my toes touched the water the sudden relaxed look on my face turned into the biggest smile. People say water doesn't smell. Well, it does. Lula's water smelled so pure! My time this weekend was amazing and I hope to go there again soon. If I had my pictures to put up I would. You should really put some input into going. Everything is worth it. Says Jenny
This stretch of Rock Creek in Georgia is 2.72 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class
V+ section. The nature scenery of Walker County and the cool fresh water will make you feel great. The starting point is not too far from Chattanooga, as you can see on the road map further down. The Lula Lake Road to Chattooga Valley Road stretch is the only paddling stretch
along Rock Creek. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. This section is quite short so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in this state is often more difficult than elsewhere, so if you're not from around here don't forget that a large number of rivers in this state are not easy. Great exercise and spending some quality time in nature are great reasons to come. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, around here you'll find a large number of good
spots.
