For those seeking a more relaxed paddle, this 5-mile route offers a perfect way to enjoy the beauty of Martin County. Paddle beneath the towering McBrides Bluff, a natural rock formation, and explore the unique geological features along West River Road. Watch for the House Rock and the Pinnacle, two distinctive landmarks, as you journey down the river.
This trip also passes through a frequently traveled section of the White River, so you’ll likely meet friendly local fishermen along the way. You might even spot a few reeling in their catch from the riverbank or jon boat. This trip includes a convenient 15-minute shuttle to the launch point and a 1-minute shuttle back to Star Mill.
