CLASS I-II 4.9 miles
This stretch of Snow Creek is 4.9 miles long and is a class I-II section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. The average North Carolina whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit easier to master than those in other states, so if you're not from around here don't forget that rivers here are less demanding. The wonderful Stokes County scenery and the water flowing gracefully down Snow Creek have people coming here. On this section you do get some distance, you can easily run it on an afternoon. There are campgrounds quite near
the river where you can camp. Snow Creek doesn't have a lot of paddling stretches, the Route 1674 Bridge to Route 1695 Bridge stretch is the only one. Great exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors are great reasons to come. 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.
