Piedra River Access via Piedra Road (CR 600/FS 631) provides a trailhead parking area located 16 miles north, serving as the starting point for the scenic 12-mile Piedra River Trail that descends into dramatic box canyons with Class IV-V whitewater.

The access point also accommodates boaters and includes a lower campground area near the river, though the river itself sits at the bottom of steep canyons making direct roadside access limited to approximately 3/4 mile near the take-out and campground facilities.
