East Walker Road Bridge provides access to the Rafter 7 Ranch unit of Walker River State Recreation Area, offering day-use public access for fishing, hiking, wildlife viewing, and hunting along the East Walker River.

The bridge marks the northern boundary for archery and shotgun hunting on the east bank, with access continuing south along the river to the property line.

Note that a major road improvement project is underway on East Walker Road to pave the access route to commercial standards.
