Located in Portsmouth, this public boat ramp provides access to the Ohio River via Munn Run. The launch is situated within the Greenup Pool, a 9-foot-deep navigation pool that extends 61.8 miles upstream to Gallipolis Locks and Dam. This access point is ideal for kayakers and canoeists looking to explore the Ohio River's lower Scioto County section, as well as anglers seeking fishing opportunities in the area.
The Offnere St. Ramp is one of four public access points along the approximately 38-mile stretch of the Ohio River that borders Scioto County. The river in this region supports a range of recreational activities, and nearby tributaries provide excellent opportunities for kayaking and paddling. The established navigation channel ensures relatively consistent water conditions, making it accessible for various vessel types from small boats to canoes and kayaks.
Before launching, paddlers should contact local authorities or check current river conditions, as the Ohio River can experience significant fluctuations in water levels and flow. The ramp's proximity to downtown Portsmouth makes it a convenient starting point for day trips or longer expeditions along the scenic Ohio River corridor.
