Black Hawk Park is a popular boat ramp access on the Cedar River for both motorized boaters and paddlers, featuring the northernmost public campground in Black Hawk County and proximity to the paved recreational trails network.

The ramp area currently has traffic flow issues due to one-way traffic setup that can cause confusion, though improvements are planned including expanded parking with pull-through trailer spaces and vegetated islands.

Visitors should note that restroom and drinking water facilities have been requested by users but may not currently be available at this location.
