About This Access Site
Aitch Boat Ramp provides convenient access to Raystown Lake, Pennsylvania's largest lake entirely within the state. Located on James Creek in Huntingdon County, this public launch is one of seven boat ramps serving the 8,300-acre lake and is particularly popular with anglers who fish from the lakeside piers and shoreline. The ramp accommodates various watercraft, from kayaks and canoes to larger boats, making it a versatile access point for recreational paddling and fishing.

The surrounding area offers excellent opportunities for day trips and longer outings. Raystown Lake is known for boating, fishing, camping, and swimming, with scenic views throughout the twisting shoreline. If you're planning an overnight adventure, Nancy's Boat to Shore Campground is located nearby (about 10 miles) and offers waterfront camping accessible by boat from the lake. For paddlers seeking a more developed facility, multiple nearby recreation areas and boat launches provide alternative access points if needed.
