The Riverside RV Park boat ramp provides access to the mighty Klamath River in northern California's Del Norte County. Situated along the 256-mile long Klamath River, this launch site offers a convenient put-in for paddlers, anglers, and small boaters.
The Klamath River is a major waterway, draining over 11,800 square miles and averaging over 18,000 cubic feet per second of flow. With an elevation drop of over 4,000 feet, the river has an average gradient of nearly 16 feet per mile, creating swift currents that paddlers should be prepared to navigate.
The boat ramp at Riverside RV Park features a single boarding float and paved carry-down area, accommodating boats up to 20 feet in length. The adjacent parking lot provides space for 92 vehicles with trailers. Visitors should consult local sources for any current restrictions or fees, as this information may vary. Nearby, the renowned Redwood National and State Parks offer a wealth of additional recreational opportunities for nature lovers.
