Gallatin Forks is a state fishing access site located 2 miles north of Manhattan offering a gravel boat ramp for accessing the Gallatin River, with day-use only access and toilet facilities available.

The site features two parcels with access points at both Nixon Bridge (10-foot trailer limit) and Yadon Road (not recommended for trailers), and is open May 1 through December 31.

Note: Boat ramp access at Nixon Bridge was scheduled to close in May 2026 for bridge construction, though walk-in river access remains available.
