Class I Alafia River, FL

Alafia River Paddling Trail (Alderman's Ford County Park to Lithia Springs County Park)

This scenic 10-mile paddling trail provides the paddler a little excitement with occasional shoals and stretches of easy rapids (depending on water levels).

 

When the water is high and the current becomes swift, the river is not recommended for beginners. Occasional downed trees may require portaging depending on water levels. The river’s water level is generally navigable.
