About This Access Site
The Philadelphia Road take-out on Winters Run in Harford County serves as an exit point for paddlers completing whitewater runs on this popular Maryland stream. Winters Run is a scenic waterway that offers varying difficulty levels depending on water conditions and the specific section being paddled. As a take-out location, this site provides access for paddlers to exit the water after their run and retrieve their vehicles or arrange shuttle logistics.

Winters Run is known among the local paddling community for its rocky character and whitewater features that make it suitable for intermediate to advanced paddlers during moderate to high water levels. The Philadelphia Road access point is conveniently located in Harford County and serves as a critical endpoint for through-paddling trips on this section of the stream. Paddlers should be aware of current conditions and seasonal water levels before attempting any section of Winters Run, as difficulty can change significantly with rainfall and runoff.
