Lake, and if you've had enough of Herrington Lake, Cooke Lake is close by. Country Hearth Inn Danville is a perfect place to get some rest. Dry warm beds await you at Country Hearth Inn Harrodsburg, and Cedar Branch is a perfect whitewater
spot close by. If you came to camp Chimney Rock Campground is a great spot to do that, and if you don't mind getting covered with water, you can always go whitewater paddling on White Oak Creek.

Hickman Creek
 | I have been rideing this strectch of creek about 4 times a summer for the past six years. Woundn't call it rapids though, most of the time it is quite shallow, alot of packing your boat. Flood water is a differt story. It's quite dangerouse but it can be done, I was able to navigate 9 miles of the creek while flooding before I lost my kayak to the creek. Beautiful ride though, bring a fishing pole, lots of small fish!... |
