Rockport, Kentucky
Green River Kentucky
Rockport, Kentucky  MapTo a closeup mapHere

Located in the central portion of Southwest Kentucky on the western boundary of Ohio County at US Highway 62, across the river is Muhlenberg County. Population is about 250.

Situated on the banks of the Green River, which rises in south central Kentucky and flowing for 360 miles (580 km) generally westward through a well-defined gorge, then northwestward to the Ohio River, which it meets the Ohio River at Evansville, Indiana. The central section of the Green offers an exceptional opportunity for a canoe camping trip. This is some of the best cave country in the world, and the last portion of the this run flows through Mammoth Cave National Park. Downstream from the park, the Green becomes a wider river, with locks and dams, and it is used by larger vessels. The Green River traverses an area of rugged terrain; bluffs and large hills are seen continuously throughout this run.

Before the river enters Mammoth Cave National Park, some of the flatter land is used for cattle grazing and feed crops, but the oak and maple forest is abundant throughout. There are many springs and small cave along the river. The area known as 300 Springs is particularly dramatic, where several waterfalls cascade into the river. The Green River would be characterized as a pool and shoal river, with long and relatively slow pools interspersed with rocky shoals where the current is much faster. There are no major rapids, but you will need to dodge rocks and other obstacles, so some whitewater skills are helpful for canoeing.
