Norristown Riverfront Park offers a large concrete boat ramp with 42 parking spaces (including 12 handicap-accessible) and seasonal porta-potties, making it a well-equipped launch point on the Schuylkill River.

The park features a handicap-accessible pavilion, picnic areas, and connections to the Schuylkill River Trail. Note: A launch permit is required, and paddlers should avoid the Norristown Dam 0.

5 miles downstream as it cannot be safely run; portage access is available from the Upper Merion Boathouse on the river-right side.
