About This Access Site
The Buffalo Valley boat ramp provides easy access to the scenic Caney Fork River, a popular destination for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats. Located in Silver Point, Tennessee, the ramp is situated just off I-40, making it a convenient launch point.

The Caney Fork is a medium-sized river known for its relatively calm waters, making it well-suited for leisure boating and floating. While sandbars and fallen trees are present, they are generally easy to navigate around. Paddlers have several options for short or longer floats, with the ability to take out at various access points downstream.

Nearby recreation areas include Cordell Hull Lake and Center Hill Lake, both of which offer additional boating, fishing, and camping opportunities. Campsites can be found within 10 miles at the Center Hill Lake Primitive Camping Areas. Visitors are encouraged to review the area's regulations and conditions before embarking on their Caney Fork River adventure.
