Wellsville Fishing Access

Wellsville is a river access point in Bighorn Sheep Canyon along the Arkansas River between Salida and Parkdale, offering public fishing access in a scenic canyon setting.

The area features walk-and-wade fishing opportunities with a wading staff strongly recommended due to difficult terrain, and is located along Highway 50 with the river running between canyon walls.

Nearby amenities include the Vallie Bridge state park site (boat launch and restrooms) approximately five miles upstream and Canyon Trading Post about five miles downstream.
