About This Access Site
This is a whitewater take-out access point on Bear Creek located in Franklin County, Alabama, near the Marion County border. As a take-out site, this location is designed for paddlers to exit the water after completing a downstream run rather than for launching. Bear Creek in this region offers whitewater paddling opportunities suitable for kayakers and canoeists seeking moving water experiences. The take-out provides river access in a rural part of north-central Alabama where the creek offers varying water conditions depending on recent rainfall and seasonal flow.
