This is a gorgeous, secluded section of river found above Melvern Lake. Arching trees shade the water and create a pleasant tunnel of green. You can expect to see plenty of wildlife such as deer, fox, coyotes, wild turkeys, bobcats, and especially beavers as the river flows through the center of the Melvern Wildlife Area. This is a great place to relax and enjoy the beautiful wildlife and nature. The minimum recommended flow is 50 CFS.
