About This Access Site
The Inskeep boat ramp provides access to the South Fork Shenandoah River in Luray, Virginia. This primitive ramp is suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats. While trailers are not feasible, there is ample parking available.

The South Fork Shenandoah River in this area is a scenic, meandering waterway with a mix of riffles, pools, and tranquil stretches. It's a popular destination for paddlers and anglers seeking smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, bluegill, and channel catfish. Boaters should be aware of the river's variable flow and navigate with caution, especially during periods of high water.

Nearby recreation options include Shenandoah National Park, located just 75 miles away. Several campgrounds within 10 miles, such as Rapidan Camp Tours and Camp Roosevelt, offer additional opportunities for overnight stays and riverside exploration. Paddlers can also consider takeout options at Foster's on Route 684, downstream of the Inskeep access point.
