West Virginia whitewater - Beaver Creek, Tucker County

Tucker county, Headwaters along Route 93 to Blackwater River section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS I-II     11 miles
 
there is a broken out dam just upstream of rt. 93 with easy (but private) access.  running the rubble at this dam provides a good gauge of what you will find/need downstream.  just remember that this is unposted private property and do not block the road for access by large work vehicles.

This stretch of Beaver Creek is 11 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class I-II section of whitewater. The scenic beauty of West Virginia and the beautiful way the water current
    moves down the stream make the trip here worthwhile. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. The average West Virginia whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit easier to master than those in other states, so better not forget that
rivers here are less demanding. Getting a good workout and spending some quality time in nature have people coming from far and near. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. There are no other sections to paddle along Beaver Creek than the Headwaters along Route 93 to Blackwater River section. This stretch is long enough for an overnight trip if you take your time, so pack your camp stove.
