Exchange Park Boat Ramp
Exchange Park Boat Ramp
Exchange Park Boat Ramp, located at the Waterloo Boathouse in downtown Waterloo, features a double-wide boat ramp with two parallel docks and one perpendicular dock, making it a premier boating destination on the Cedar River.
The facility includes recently improved parking lots, recreational trail extensions, an overlook, patio, and lighting, and serves as a popular launch point for rowers, paddlers, and motorized boaters.
This is currently the last river access before the downtown Waterloo dam for paddlers heading downstream.
