What parking place do you park at to get in?  Parking place to get out for this trip? Could tubes work also?...This run is great, but it is NOT in Bedford or Campbell county not even near. it starts in Mongomry county and flows into Roanoke county.use the put in at the Dixie Caverns wayside on Rt. 11. there are several take outs you can use, the river is next to the road in several places....

Hoge Pond
Yes, Harvey; Hoge Pond is on private property.  It is a beautiful lake cradled by the rolling hills outside Blacksburg.  A small residence sits on the shoreline. ...Can anyone tell me how to get to Hoge Pond. Is there somewhere you can park and hike to it? I've tried Walnut Springs with no luck. Thanks for your help!...

New River Junction Campground
17 miles away
People are friendly and accommodating, great fishing, tubing and canoeing, but the New River has railroad tracks running along both sides of the river.  Be aware that you are camping 20 yards from an active train track!...

Craig Creek
18 miles away
I've never kayaked this stretch of Craig's Creek, but it is not the ONLY stretch by far!  We spent 10 days in a lovely VRBO.com riverfront vacation rental downstream from New Castle, and kayaked both up and down the river multiple times, even though the area was in the middle of a bad drought.  We will be renting in Roaring Run this year, which is according to the owner kayakable for the 5 miles to where it meets the James River.  There is a very nice pull out/picnic spot where the two meet, and plenty of room to park.  Take time out to splash around as well.  I've never seen a river this clean before!...
