About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** Ulm Bridge is a Missouri River fishing access site located in Great Falls, Montana, at one of the river's many bends. The boat ramp approach points downstream and can be difficult to spot from the water until you're very close, so scout carefully when approaching.
**For Paddlers & Boaters:** This access point puts you on the Missouri River in a scenic stretch known for blue-ribbon trout and whitefish fishing. The site provides a useful launching point for both upstream and downstream paddling. Be aware of the ramp's downstream orientation when planning your entry and exit, and allow extra time to locate the access from the water.
**Nearby Options:** If you need additional amenities or alternative access, Stickney Creek Fishing Access Site (3.7 miles north of Craig) offers a comparable ramp plus restrooms, campsites, and picnic facilities. Other downriver access points include Big Bend, White Bear, and Giant Springs State Park in Great Falls, making this section of the Missouri River well-served for multi-day trips.
