Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Arkansas is often easier than elsewhere, so you'd better keep in mind that a lot of the rivers in this state are suitable for beginners. The scenic beauty of Faulkner County and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream beats anything. The starting point is not too far from Little Rock-North Little Rock, if you're not familiar with the area there's a road map further down the page. There are |
so many stretches to paddle in this river system, the Highway 124 to Pinnacle Springs Campground stretch is just one of many. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem
| but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. This stretch of Cadron Creek in Faulkner County is 13 miles long and has been rated as a class I(II) section by American Whitewater. This section is long enough for an overnight trip if you take your time, so pack your camping stuff. Great exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors will have you coming back for more. No matter if you're whitewater rafting or kayaking | |

this is an area with plenty of rivers for that. The Boston Mountains scenery is wonderful. The campgrounds here at Cadron Creek are pretty good.
Briefly about the general area: Lots of folks from Guy come to Cadron
Creek, and unsurprisingly, everyone loves Woolly Hollow State Park. So much exciting stuff to do in the Boston Mountains, not enough time. The high level of rain makes Cadron Creek a rather wet place. May is the month that
gets the most rain, and the driest month is January. All through the warm months, highs frequently are in the 90's at Cadron Creek.
