Fireman's Park in Newburg serves as a put-in access point for paddling the Milwaukee River, with ample parking available though the lot is located on the opposite side of the bridge from the water access, requiring a trek along a paved trail beneath the bridge tunnel.

The put-in features a riffly entrance beneath the bridge and provides convenient access to an 11-mile paddling section downstream to Fredonia, suitable for beginner paddlers with riffles and swift current.
