The wonderful Ohio scenery and the playfulness of the water beats anything. The put-in is not too far from Akron, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. There are so many sections to paddle in this river system, the Kent to Munroe Falls section is just one of many. This is an extremely short section so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times. Getting some good exercise and just being out on the river for a while are great attractions for lots of people. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Ohio is
often easier than elsewhere, so don't forget that the rivers in this state are less demanding. There are some good hotels near the river, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby.
