Maryland whitewater - Potomac River, Montgomery County

Montgomery county, Lock 10 to Little Falls section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 
  The Lock 10 to Little Falls section of Potomac River is -blank- miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class I section. Getting a good workout and just being out on the river for a while are great reasons to come. The Lock 10 to Little Falls section is the only paddling section along Potomac River. The beautiful scenery of Montgomery County and the water flowing gracefully down Potomac River beats anything. The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit easier to master in this state than those in other
    states, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that many runs in this state are very easy. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but if you don’t
have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car.
