Little River (New River)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Little River, a tributary of the New River, is approximately 65 miles long in southwest Virginia in the United States.

It rises in two forks in Floyd County near the Blue Ridge Parkway. It flows NNW through Montgomery County and joins the New River just downstream from the Claytor Lake dam near the city of Radford.

The lower portion of this very scenic waterway is suitable for paddling with several Class 1 and 2 and one fairly treacherous Class 4 rapid. Portions are stocked with trout by the Virginia Division of Game and Inland Fisheries.
