Iron Bridge Park offers a two-lane boat ramp on the Leon River in Bell County, accessible year-round. The facility includes a parking area and restroom facilities. This is an excellent access point for kayakers and canoeists looking to paddle the Leon River, with the historic Charter Oak and nearby attractions like the Stage Coach Inn in Salona adding cultural interest to your visit.
**Important Launch Considerations:** The ramp is notably shallow and designed for smaller watercraft—vessels larger than 14-foot flat-bottom boats should not attempt launch here. This makes it ideal for kayaks, canoes, and small recreational boats. To reach the park from I-35 near Temple, take the Farm-to-Market Road 2305/Adams exit and follow signs toward Iron Bridge Park; the access road involves a couple of turns before dead-ending at the ramp.
