The natural beauty of Huntington County and the water flowing gracefully down Wabash River beats anything. A good workout and a chance to spend some time outdoors are great reasons to come. This is an extremely short stretch so you'd better be prepared
    to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground. The put-in location is a reasonable drive from Huntington, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. There are some good stretches to paddle in this
river system, the Huntington surfing hole stretch is one of them. No shortage of good hotels, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way this area has a pretty small number of paddling rivers.
