are reasons enough to come here and paddle. Getting your paddling muscles activated and spending some quality time in nature will make you glad you came. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in Virginia is often easier than
| | elsewhere, so if you're visiting here do keep in mind that many of the sections in this state are safe for beginners. There are nice comfortable hotels here, but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. And of course, there are campgrounds nearby. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way around here you'll find a large number of good rivers. This stretch has has enough mileage, good | |

for a one day paddling trip. The beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains scenery is an added bonus. There are a few other stretches in this river system that can be paddled as well.
Briefly about the general area: A journey
to Shenandoah River Andy Guest State Park invigorates the spirit, and a tour to Blue Hole is always a magnificent idea. Yeah, come up here to the Blue Ridge Mountains for a magnificent time. Have a nice hiking adventure
along the Passage Creek For Trail, and Fort Valley is certainly a delightful place to take a look at. This is such a fun river. Hiking along the Shawl Gap Trail is great fun; at Passage Creek you always meet someone from Middletown.
