The Chattooga is South Carolina's classic whitewater destination. Section III is a beautiful section of river with intermediate to advanced whitewater. Since the Chattooga is a National Wild and Scenic River the river corridor is protected by a 1/4 to 1/2 mile buffer zone where developement is not allowed. There are few permanent signs of humans from the route 28 bridge to route 76 bridge. You may see tents and a campsite or two but no roads, houses, convenience stores, or fast food restaurants.
Large, paved parking lot, restrooms, trailhead, and an overlook of the Chattooga River. A short walk upstream lets you observe boaters take on Bull Sluice, a large IV+ rapid just upstream of the Highway 76 access.
