Tennessee whitewater - Board Camp Creek, Cumberland Plateau Mountains, Hamilton County

Hamilton county, Jones Gap Road to Soddy Creek section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 
  The average Tennessee whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be harder to run than those in other states, so don't forget that many of the rivers here are not very forgiving. The natural beauty of Hamilton County and the playfulness of the water have people coming here. Board Camp Creek doesn't have a lot of paddling sections, the Jones Gap Road to Soddy Creek section is the only one. This section of Board Camp Creek is -blank- miles long and is a class IV-V section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. No need to look hard for hotels,
    but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. Great exercise and just hanging out with mother nature are great reasons to come. The river winds through the Cumberland Plateau Mountains and you get great scenery. The campgrounds here at Board Camp
Creek are pretty good.
