The Oconee River is one of the larger rivers in Georgia, running 160 miles through the some of the state’s most solitude wilderness. The Oconee begins at the confluence of the North and Middle Oconee Rivers, not more than a few miles from the put-in spot. This section of the Oconee offers a moderate current through Piedmont wilderness areas that are surprisingly remote and pristine. The banks are thickly wooded with river birch, sycamore, bream and ash. The banks on the lower park of this run are bordered by the Oconee National Forest where wildlife is abundant and includes beavers and muskrats.
