Little Beaver Creek represents some of the most rugged and wildest land in Ohio. Forested to a width of over a mile in places, this stream is home of the endangered hellbender (large aquatic salamander) and retains its original aquatic community. From ridges topping over 200 feet, there are breathtaking views of the valley below.
Little Beaver Creek and its surrounding valley supports a variety of interesting and enjoyable recreation activities in a near natural and scenic setting. Most of the existing use occurs at Beaver Creek State Park. Recreational activities most closely associated with the Little Beaver include camping, hiking, canoeing, hunting, fishing, nature study, picnicking, horseback riding, sightseeing, and swimming.
Although canoeing use is limited by low flows during the primary recreation months of June, July, and August, the opportunity for participation in this activity is substantial. Floating the Little Beaver during the spring months of April and May when water levels are higher is an interesting and rewarding trip for the canoeist.
