Lower Roswell Road to Chattahoochee River section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS III-IV(V) 2.5 miles
All dried up. Not much more than bathwater running through...no exaggeration. 7-6-2008 Says Ronald S.
The starting location is a reasonable drive from Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta, as you can see on the road map further down. The natural beauty of Cobb County and the playfulness of the water will make you feel great. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this area has a large number of paddling places. If you've been out of state whitewater rafting and kayaking you might find the rivers here more demanding, so you'd better keep in mind
that many of the rivers here are not very forgiving. Lodging is available near the river, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. A good workout and just being out on the river for a while will have you coming back for more. There's camping
available near Sope Creek. Sope Creek doesn't have a lot of paddling stretches, the Lower Roswell Road to Chattahoochee River stretch is the only one. This section of Sope Creek in Cobb County is 2.5 miles long and is a class III-IV(V) section of whitewater according to American Whitewater.
Briefly about the general area: Nearby Chochran Shoals is a brilliant spot to go if you're at Sope Creek. High temperatures at Sope Creek throughout the warm days of summer are in the 80's, and all through summer nights temperatures are in the 60's. Throughout
the winter highs are commonly in the 40's, and after the sun is down during the wintertime temperatures at Sope Creek plunge into the 20's. The high level of precipitation makes Sope Creek a quite wet place; the month of March is the wettest with most of the rain, and October is the month with the least moisture.
