Milo McIver State Park Boat Ramp

Milo McIver State Park offers two boat ramps on the Clackamas River—an upper ramp and a lower ramp—providing access to both whitewater paddling and relaxing floats, with the lower ramp serving as a popular alternative to crowded Barton Park for 6.

3-mile floats to Barton or shorter 2. 3-mile floats between the two ramps.

The park features a $5 day-use permit, restrooms at both ramps, a life jacket loaner station at Estacada Lake, and SUP/kayak rentals available through Clackamas River Outfitters; the upper ramp includes a Class II+ rapid immediately after launch, while the lower section offers easier Class I rapids and scenic views of old-growth forest and wildlife.
