Dolan Falls Access
Dolan Falls Access
Dolan Falls Access provides entry to the Devils River via the Del Norte Unit of Devils River State Natural Area, accessible via a rough 22-mile gravel road (8-ply tires recommended) from Highway 277.
Paddlers can launch non-motorized boats and access primitive riverside campsites with Devils River Access Permits; the facility operates Friday 8am-Monday 5pm with a $5 day-use fee and requires orientation at headquarters.
Dolan Falls itself is located downstream and accessible only by paddle trip, with the nearest public takeout approximately 15 miles downriver at the Dan A. Hughes Unit.
