Lickdale Trailhead Access offers carry-in water access via a stone path down to Swatara Creek at Mile 13 of the Swatara Water Trail.
The location features a large, spread-out parking area with trailer parking and portable toilets (May-October), but paddlers should note this is the last access before a low head dam and should not launch unless prepared to portage around it.
A DCNR Launch Permit or PA Fish and Boat registration is required for all users.
