East Charlemont Access

East Charlemont Fishing Access Site features a boat ramp located on Route 2 next to the Park & Ride lot, just upstream of the #4 station dam on the Deerfield River.

The site provides access for canoes and kayaks, with the downstream paddle to Shunpike boat ramp covering approximately eight miles of mostly Class I water with some Class II rapids.

This access point is suitable for paddlers of moderate skill levels seeking to explore the scenic Deerfield River corridor.
