Otterville Bridge Boat Ramp

Otterville Bridge Boat Ramp provides hard surface access to the Wapsipinicon River and serves as a popular takeout point for paddlers navigating downstream from Littleton or a launching point for those paddling through the impoundment above Independence.

Located on the 185-acre Otterville Bridge Area managed by the Iowa DNR, this concrete boat ramp offers a convenient access point for approximately a two-hour canoe trip to Independence, depending on water conditions.
