Draper Landing Boat Ramp

Draper Landing is a newly constructed boating access area on the Dan River featuring a gravel parking lot, metal staircase with handrails down to the water, and improved facilities to accommodate vehicles with trailers and two accessible parking spaces.

This is the last public boat ramp in North Carolina on the Dan River before the Virginia border, making it a critical access point for paddlers and rescue vessels in an area that previously had no public ramps for 21+ miles downstream.
