RIVER INFO/Access Points/Mayo River
 
Mayo River, Rockingham County, NC
...220 Bridge Access
 

Location:
At the business 220 bridge 1 1/2 miles north of Mayodan.

Description:
The river remains scenic but enters an interesting historic industrial district. The dams at Avalon (1899) and Mayodan (1930's) are used for generating power. Below Avalon is a series of ledges that require maneuvering, and downriver from Mayodan is a natural waterfall about three feet high. Since there are no portage trails around the dams, this section is not recommended at this time.
