Good stretch of water after a good hard rain. It is definitely not for the beginner. Creek winds through what is mostly private property. One land owner is not very friendly and will harass you, but that is near the end next to a waterfall. With all things said if you ignore the last land owner the creek is awesome. Says Pat

| section of Wallenpaupack Creek is 9.8 miles long and is according to American Whitewater a class I-III section of whitewater. You can pitch a tent or park your RV at a nearby campground.

exercise and just hanging out with mother nature are great attractions for lots of people. This stretch is mid length, suitable for an afternoon trip. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking this is an area with plenty
of rivers for that. There are many good hotels to choose from, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick.
Briefly about the general area: Take a hike on the Boundary Trail, and folks
from Lake Ariel love to come here. Going to Tobyhanna State Park in close proximity to Wallenpaupack Creek is a pleasant thing to do, and you can have a good hiking adventure along the Lakeside Trail.
