Wagon Wheel Gap Interpretive Site boat ramp

This interpretive rest stop on the Silverthread Scenic Byway features a small gravel boat launching ramp suitable for rafts and small fishing boats accessing the Rio Grande.

The site offers ample graveled parking, restrooms, and interpretive signs about the Gap's geology, though it is not handicap accessible and potable water is not available.

Located 13 miles west of South Fork on Highway 149, it serves as a popular put-in point for float trips down the Rio Grande.
