The FM 1220 Bridge provides convenient access to the West Fork Trinity River near Eagle Mountain Lake in Tarrant County. To reach the ramp, take Indian Creek Road west from FM 1220. This is a privately operated facility that charges a small daily fee and offers secure parking for vehicles and trailers, making it a practical launch point for kayakers and canoeists exploring this stretch of the river.
The West Fork through the mid-cities area is generally safe for paddling, though paddlers should check their intended route in advance to identify any dams, low-water crossings, or other hazards. This section is popular for day trips and canoe launches. If you're planning to paddle downstream, note that shuttle arrangements may be necessary depending on your take-out point. For current information about hours, fees, and facility conditions, contact the operators directly before your visit.
