Zoar Picnic Area offers a public boat ramp with ample parking and picnic tables, serving as a popular put-in point for tubing and paddling on the Deerfield River.

Located just upstream of the challenging Zoar Gap rapid (Class III), the area has limited restroom facilities and is best used as a put-in below the Gap rather than above it due to safety concerns.

Note that parking restrictions are strictly enforced and facilities can be full to overflowing on busy weekends.
