Connellsville Boat Ramp provides river access at Yough River Park, located on river-left immediately after passing under the second road bridge in Connellsville.

This Fish and Boat Commission-maintained access point is the most developed along the river trail, offering amenities including pavilions, restrooms, volleyball courts, and children's play areas, plus nearby hotels, restaurants, and free camping platforms along the Great Allegheny Passage trail.

Boaters should be aware of a dangerous low-head dam located upstream that requires portaging to river-left before entering Connellsville.
