Summers county, CR 14 Bridge to Greenbrier River section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS III-IV(V)     2.5 miles
  If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside this state you might find the rivers here a bit more forgiving, so you'd better keep in mind that rivers here are less demanding. This section of Little Wolf Creek is 2.5 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class III-IV(V) section of whitewater. A good workout and just hanging out with mother nature are great reasons to come. This stretch is short so it's not like you're gonna spend hours on the river in one stretch. There are plenty of other sections in this river system that can
    be paddled as well. The scenic beauty of West Virginia and the playfulness of the water attract people from near and far. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set. No matter if you're whitewater
rafting or kayaking there are lots of good rivers for that around here.
