Experience the Little Pee Dee River paddling from Locust Tree Landing to White Oak Road Landing. Paddle through beautiful cypress-tupelo swamps with our group. Read below for the full trip plan and details.

This trip, we're planning to paddle downstream on the Little Pee Dee. We'll enjoy paddling and taking breaks on the beautiful sand bars of the river. We'll start at Locust Tree Landing a take out at White Oak Rd landing. This is the perfect trip for beginner paddlers and families looking for a fun day on the water!

The cypress-tupelo swamps of the Little Pee Dee floodplain are magnificent, and paddling on the blackwater is the best way to experience them. Summertime offers lower water levels and sand bars to enjoy!

The paddle will entail 3-4 hours on the water with added stops for breaks for lunch and stretching our legs on the banks of the river. Please pack appropriate paddling equipment, lunch, water, a towel, and a required PFD.

Our group will meet at the Hotspot travel center promptly at 8:30am to meet up before heading to Locust Tree. Please use this address to meet the group at the Hot Spot Travel Center before driving to the landing:
