Mt. Hersey is a scenic put-in on the Buffalo River accessible via a 5. 2-mile gravel road from either Highway 123 or Highway 65, with no boat carrying required as you can drive directly to the river.

The access offers free primitive camping and restrooms, and is ideal for an 8. 6-mile float to Woolum (approximately 4. 5 hours) with Class I-II rapids, best paddled October through June or after heavy rains.
