About This Access Site
Put In at 38th Street in Hyattsville provides access to the Anacostia River in the Brentwood area of Prince George's County. This is a whitewater put-in location, making it suitable for paddlers interested in moving water conditions rather than calm lake paddling. The site is located in an urban setting with coordinates placing it near the Brentwood neighborhood, providing a convenient launch point for exploring this section of the Anacostia River.

As a whitewater put-in, this access point is best suited for kayakers and canoeists with intermediate to advanced paddling experience who are comfortable navigating current and moving water. The specific characteristics of the whitewater conditions at this location would depend on water levels and recent rainfall in the watershed. Paddlers should be familiar with the Anacostia River's flow patterns and any hazards specific to this section before launching.
