The scenic beauty of Fayette County and the water flowing gracefully down Wildwater Expeditions are reasons enough to come here and paddle. Whitewater rafting and kayaking in this state is often easier than elsewhere, so if you're visiting here
    do keep in mind that many of the rivers in this state are not very demanding. There are plenty of hotels here if you want to spend a night, and if you make reservations in advance you're all set. Great exercise and spending
some quality time in nature will make you glad you came. Some people prefer whitewater rafting and some kayaking, either way this area has a large number of paddling places. The put-in is not too far from Oak Hill.

Briefly about the general area:
Go for a hike on the Carnifex Trail; you'll perhaps meet some people from Edmond here. Don't leave Wildwater Expeditions without first paying a visit to Millers Folly Rapids. Long Point is in
 
close proximity and always great to explore; Hawks Nest State Park is both good and beautiful. Fayette Station Rapids is an inspiring spot to pop by during your stay, and when you're here it's always fun to stop at Babcock State Park. Do pay a visit to Bluestone National Scenic River while you're here at Wildwater Expeditions; splendid hiking is available along the Way Back Trail. But wait, there's more to do next to Wildwater Expeditions. Throughout the warm days of summer highs here at Wildwater Expeditions get into the 80's. For the duration of the moonlight hours it's ordinarily in the 60's.
