Belmont

The Belmont boat ramp on the Black Warrior River in Demopolis, Alabama, offers access to a large, navigable waterway. The Black Warrior River is a sizable stream, measuring 168 miles long with an average flow of over 10,800 cubic feet per second. Paddlers and boaters can expect a river with a moderate gradient of 1.1 feet per mile.

The boat ramp is located within Belmont Park, a campground operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The park provides basic amenities like a group shelter, water-flush restrooms, and campsites. All visitors to Belmont Park are required to pay a fee to use the boat ramp. Campers will appreciate the easy access to the river for fishing, boating, and other water recreation.

Nearby recreation areas on the Black Warrior and Tombigbee River lakes offer additional opportunities for exploration. Paddlers and boaters should check the park's status prior to their visit, as the boat ramp and facilities may be subject to temporary closures or restrictions.
