Horseshoe Bend Boat Ramp

Located just north of Horseshoe Bend on Highway 55, this boat ramp provides access to the Upper Main Payette River's demanding whitewater.

The ramp is steep and requires launching at a 90-degree angle to the swift current, making it challenging for inexperienced boaters; nearby Black Canyon Reservoir offers an alternative launch with better facilities.

The site includes accessible restrooms and is open during daylight hours only (closed sunset to sunrise).
