CLASS II-IV 7.5 miles
The starting location is a reasonable drive from Glens Falls, as you can see on the road map further down. The beautiful scenery of New York and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water make the trip here worthwhile. On this section you do get some distance, good for a one day paddling trip. Getting your paddling muscles activated and just being out on the river for a while are great attractions for lots of people. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way in this general area you'll find lots of paddling spots. Whitewater rafting
and kayaking in this state is often more difficult than elsewhere, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that lots of rivers here are not for beginners. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but do book a room
before you come because it is a very popular destination. Fish Creek doesn't have a lot of paddling stretches, the Burgoyne to Schuylerville stretch is the only one. For all you camping people there are campgrounds nearby. This section of Fish Creek is 7.5 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class II-IV section.
