Gravel Lick Boat Ramp

This hand-carry canoe and kayak launch on the Clarion River features a level aggregate parking area suitable for 10-15 vehicles with trailer turnaround space.

The access to the river is steep and narrow with an earth surface subject to erosion and mud accumulation near the bottom, particularly in wet conditions; improved directional signage and a stabilized ramp are recommended to enhance usability for a wider range of paddlers.

A natural spring upstream offers potential for wading or swimming, and the launch serves as a critical access point between the Mill Creek Launch (8. 5 river miles downstream) and upstream paddling destinations.
