If you've been whitewater rafting and kayaking outside Arizona you might find the rivers here a bit more challenging, so don't forget that many runs in this state are not easy. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way this area has a pretty small number of paddling places. Great exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors are great attractions for lots of people. 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. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. The beautiful scenery
| of Coconino/ Navajo County and the water flowing gracefully down Chevelon Creek attract people from near and far. A section like this is is of course not run in a single day, so better bring your camping gear along. The Woods Canyon Lake to Little Colorado River section is one of a few paddling sections in this river system.
