Doe Run Access
Doe Run Access
Doe Run Access is a river take-out point on the Smith River in Henry County, located off Dupont Road with ample parking and a gravel-base path along an existing sewer-line easement.
This access is the final take-out before the Martinsville Dam and is critical for paddlers completing the Smith River Blueway, as portaging around the dam is not feasible.
The site features excellent birding habitat with waterfowl and raptids, and interpretive signage explains the area's textile heritage and wetland ecology.
