Pennsylvania whitewater - Little Mahoning Creek, Indiana County

Indiana county, Nashville to Rochester Mills section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS II     6 miles
  If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside Pennsylvania you might find the rivers here a bit more manageable, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that rivers here are less demanding. The beautiful scenery of Indiana County and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, this area has a large number of paddling spots. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. Great
    exercise and just being out on the river for a while will make you glad you came. The starting point is not too far from Indiana, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that. This stretch of Little Mahoning Creek in Pennsylvania is 6 miles long and it is classified
as a class II section by American Whitewater. The Nashville to Rochester Mills stretch is one of a few paddling stretches in this river system. This section is long enough to enjoy a good non stop paddle, good for a one day paddling trip. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set.
