Anderson Ferry

Anderson Ferry provides boat access to the Ohio River and Dry Creek in Cincinnati, located at the historic ferry crossing that has operated since 1817. This is a public access point for launching kayaks, canoes, and other watercraft into the Ohio River, one of the region's major recreational waterways. The site offers opportunities for paddling on both the main Ohio River and its tributaries, including Dry Creek, which is suitable for kayaking and canoeing.

The Ohio River borders western Hamilton County for approximately 38 miles and provides reliable boating conditions year-round. Paddlers launching from Anderson Ferry can explore the main river or venture into Dry Creek for a different paddling experience. The area is conveniently located near Cincinnati and serves as one of four public access points in the county for launching watercraft. Nearby recreation includes Winton Woods Park (home to West Fork Lake) and the William Howard Taft National Historic Site, making this a good hub for both water and land-based activities in the greater Cincinnati area.
