Reitin vesitilanne on tällä hetkellä huono Juva – Oravanpesät ja Konnusjoki – Rapio melontaosuuksilla, eikä melonta näillä reittiosuuksilla onnistu. Melonnan voi aloittaa Viitakoskelta ja Sulkavan Oravanpesiltä.
Muista myös seudun mainiot järvimelontamahdollisuudet! Muun muassa Saimaan Luonterin melontakarttaa on saatavilla alueen matkailuneuvonnoista.
