This stretch has enough mileage for an overnight trip, so go ahead and pack your camp stove. The natural beauty of Schoharie County and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. This section of Cobleskill Creek is 13
miles long and is a class I-III section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. There are no other stretches to paddle along Cobleskill Creek than the Warnerville to Sidney Corners stretch. For all you camping people there are campgrounds nearby. A bit of exercise and just
being out on the river for a while are great reasons to come. No shortage of good hotels, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick.
