About This Access Site
Locker Landing is a popular boat ramp and access site on the Maury River near Glasgow, Virginia. This concrete boat ramp provides ample parking for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats looking to explore this scenic Appalachian waterway.

The Maury River is a medium-sized tributary of the James River, flowing for around 50 miles through the Blue Ridge Mountains. Its whitewater character and Class I-III rapids make it a popular destination for experienced paddlers. Boaters and kayakers should scout the river before launching and be prepared to portage around any dangerous obstacles.

The Locker Landing access site is located just downstream of the Route 130 bridge, providing a convenient take-out point for trips originating upstream. With its spacious parking area, this access point is a great option, especially on busier weekends when parking may be limited at other nearby launches. Paddlers should check water levels and local conditions before heading out to ensure a safe and enjoyable trip on the Maury River.
