CLASS II 1.4 miles
The nature scenery of Pennsylvania and the playfulness of the water are reasons enough to come here and paddle. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in this state tend to be more forgiving than the national average, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that a large number of rivers in this state are quite easy. Great exercise and just being out on the river for a while are sure to keep you coming back for more. This is a very short stretch so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over. The Above SR 879 to West Branch Susquehanna River confluence
section of Deer Creek is 1.4 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class II section. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby.
