Canadensis to mouth section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS I-III 21.2 miles
Have you paddled the 21+ miles on this? If not, do you know anyone who has? Where are the CL3 spots on this river? Is the CL3 on this easier than most CL3 on NY? Says Jay Dee
The natural beauty of Monroe County and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit easier to master in this state than those in other states, so don't forget that quite a few of the sections here are pretty easy. This section has enough mileage for an overnight
trip, so why not pack your camp stove too. If you're coming from East Stroudsburg it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp. There are no
other sections to paddle along Brodhead Creek than the Canadensis to mouth section. The Canadensis to mouth stretch of Brodhead Creek is 21.2 miles long and is a class I-III section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. No matter if you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this area has a large number of paddling places. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick.
Briefly about the general area: Alpine Mountain has fine slopes and a friendly staff. All the water
falling down from the sky makes Brodhead Creek a wet place; May is when you get the most rain here, and February on the other hand is the driest.

All through the wintertime highs are mostly in the 20's, and winter nights come with lows in the 10's to Brodhead Creek.
