Hunter Bridge Access

Hunter Bridge Access is a public boat ramp on the Watauga River in Carter County, managed by Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, featuring a medium-sized gravel parking lot with direct river access.

The ramp has low clearance under the bridge and is popular with paddlers and anglers; wading is only safe during low water when TVA is not generating from Wilbur Dam.

Parking should be limited to the downstream section of the lot to keep the upstream area clear for boat ramp access.
