About This Access Site
The Blue Bridge boat ramp provides convenient river access to Guntersville Lake on the Tennessee River in South Pittsburg, Tennessee. This location is well-suited for launching kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats.

The ramp is located just off Harbor Road, with a paved parking area nearby. The launch site features a single concrete boat ramp that extends into the lake. Water depths are generally suitable for easy launching, though water levels can fluctuate with hydroelectric dam operations upstream. Paddlers should be prepared for currents and potential wakes from passing boat traffic on this wide, navigable reservoir.

Guntersville Lake is a broad, slow-moving section of the Tennessee River, offering ample opportunities for flatwater paddling and boating. The lake stretches for over 75 miles, with abundant access points and amenities for recreational users. Nearby Russell Cave National Monument also provides land-based hiking and historical attractions for visitors to the area.
