CLASS IV 2 miles
|
| |
This section of Long Green Creek is 2 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class IV section of whitewater. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Maryland are easier than the national norm, so you'd better keep in mind that a lot of the rivers in this state are suitable for beginners. The wonderful Maryland scenery and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water attract people from near and far. If you'll be staying in a hotel |
you're in luck, lodging is available very near the river, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. This is a somewhat short section so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over.
| There's camping available near Long Green Creek. A bit of exercise and spending some quality time in nature are great reasons to come. There are a few other stretches in this river system that can be paddled as well. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this is an area with plenty of rivers for that. The starting point is not too far from Baltimore-Towson, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that.
