The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master in this state than those in other states, so better not forget that a large number of rivers in this state are not easy. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp. Getting your paddling muscles activated and
    spending some quality time in nature are great attractions for lots of people. Glen Creek doesn't have a lot of paddling stretches, the Above Diprill Road bridge to G stretch is the only one. 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. This section is long enough to enjoy a good non stop paddle, it's perfect for a one day trip. If you're coming from Glens Falls it's not a long drive at all to the put-in location, as you can see on the road map further down. The beautiful Adirondack Mountains scenery is an added bonus.
