county,
Little Falls section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II-III(IV) 2 miles
This section of Potomac River in Maryland is 2 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class II-III(IV) section of whitewater. The scenic beauty of Montgomery County and the cool fresh water attract people from near and far. If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside this state you might find the rivers here a bit more forgiving, so keep in mind that quite a few of the sections here are pretty easy. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. The Little Falls section is one of many paddling sections in this river system. This
section is quite short so no need to bring snacks. Getting your paddling muscles activated and just hanging out with mother nature will make you glad you came. There are plenty of hotels here if you want to spend a night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels
fill up quick. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way there are lots of good spots for that around here.
