Banks Boat Ramp is a popular put-in point at the confluence of the North Fork and South Fork Payette Rivers, featuring a wooden ramp designed for commercial paddle rafts and a two-lane concrete ramp for private boaters.

The Boise National Forest recently upgraded the facility to improve access and reduce wear, with parking available for $3/day or $20 for a season pass.

This is a high-traffic location, especially during summer weekends, serving as the primary access point for the Main Payette River's Class III rapids.
