About This Access Site
The Mount Olive boat ramp provides convenient access to the White River, a major Ozark waterway. The White River is a large, fast-flowing river with an average gradient of 7.4 feet per mile, making it well-suited for both paddlers and motorized boaters.

The access site features a newly renovated boat ramp to accommodate modern, larger vessels. A sizeable parking area is available under the nearby bridge. This access point is located near the headwaters of the White River, which has a total length of over 1,050 miles and drains a watershed of nearly 27,000 square miles.

Nearby campgrounds like Gunner Pool and Barkshed provide overnight options for those looking to explore the White River by boat or kayak. The river is stocked with trout, making it a popular destination for anglers as well. Boaters and paddlers can enjoy the scenic Ozark landscapes as they navigate this substantial waterway.
