Avalon/Glen Artney Takeout is a whitewater access point on the Patapsco River in Baltimore County, Maryland. This site serves as a takeout location for paddlers running whitewater sections of the Patapsco, making it a key destination for kayakers and canoeists navigating the river's rapids and faster sections. The takeout provides river access for those completing whitewater paddling trips in this area of central Maryland.
As a dedicated takeout point rather than a launch site, this location is primarily used by paddlers finishing their runs on the Patapsco. Boaters planning trips should coordinate their shuttle accordingly, as takeout-only sites require access to put-in locations elsewhere on the river. The Patapsco in this region offers whitewater paddling opportunities suitable for paddlers with intermediate to advanced skills, given the river's current and hazards typical of Maryland whitewater sections.
