About This Access Site
Longcroft Park in Berlin, Green Lake County provides boat ramp access to the Fox River, a large, flowing waterway suitable for various recreational boating activities. Located in the upper reaches of the 202-mile Fox River system, this access point offers paddlers and boaters convenient entry to a section of stream characterized by moderate current and gradient. The site features park amenities including trails, picnic areas, and a youth camping facility, making it an ideal spot for a full day of recreation.
The Fox River at this location is a significant waterway with an average flow of approximately 2,350 cubic feet per second and average velocity of 3.6 feet per second, indicating steady current conditions typical of a large river. Paddlers should be prepared for moderate flow conditions and plan accordingly. The ramp allows access for kayaks, canoes, and motorized boats. The site's proximity to other established access points along the river makes it convenient for multi-day trips or shuttle paddling.
Before visiting, check current water conditions and confirm any seasonal access restrictions or facilities that may be available. As with all river access sites, paddlers should verify ramp conditions and parking availability, especially during peak recreation seasons.
