Moore county, North Carolina Route 42 to Route 1456 section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS I-II     12.7 miles
  If you've been out of state whitewater rafting and kayaking you might find the rivers here more forgiving, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that rivers here are not as hard as elsewhere. This stretch of Deep River in North Carolina is 12.7 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class I-II section. If you're coming from Southern Pines it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, as you can see on the road map further down. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. The natural beauty of North Carolina and the
    cool fresh water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. There are plenty of other sections in this river system that can be paddled as well. If you hurry you can run this section in a day but why not make it an overnighter, so why not pack your camp stove too.
Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this area has a large number of paddling rivers. A bit of exercise and spending some quality time in nature have people coming from far and near. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination.
