  The beautiful scenery of Washington and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream will make you feel great. This stretch of Sand Hollow Creek in Washington is 1.5 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class III-IV section of whitewater. Great exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors are great reasons to come. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. This is a short paddling stretch so you'll have to walk back to
    the start over and over. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Washington tend to be more challenging than the national average, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that the rivers in this state are less manageable. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you
can camp. This is the only paddling section along Sand Hollow Creek. The wild scenery of the Wenatchee Mountains is great.
