River Description
Harrods Creek is a fun and scenic Class II run with large boulders at the bottom of a wooded
gorge. It averages 25-40 feet wide. You will find several islands but even at high levels you
will easily be able to find the best route.
The best part of Harrods Creek is between the KY 53 bridge and 393 bridge. You will find a few
good Class II Surf Spots and one Class III surf hole a little before reaching the KY393
bridge.
If you choose to run a different section other than KY 53 to KY 393 you will need to watch out
for riverwide strainers. These are easily to avoid and portage.
