Put In
Located at the Day Use Park near the confluence of the Cispus and Cowlitz Rivers at Lake Scanewa, this boat ramp features a dock and is one of only two access points to the lake—and the only one allowing direct launch into the lake rather than the river.
The park offers picnic tables, a swimming area, and restroom facilities, with a speed limit of 8 mph on Lake Scanewa to prevent damaging wakes.
