Sandstone Falls Boat Ramp
Sandstone Falls Boat Ramp
Sandstone Falls Boat Launch provides access to the New River between Sandstone and Meadow Creek, with a boat ramp located one mile north of Sandstone Visitor Center on Meadow Creek Road.
Parking is available along the ramp access road on gravel surfaces, though there is no formal parking lot.
This access point is ideal for paddlers and anglers looking to reach the upper New River section, though boaters should note that Sandstone Falls itself (located downstream) is a required portage with a 10-25 foot drop and has been the site of several drownings—always wear a life jacket.
