The Cupsuptic River public boat ramp in Rangeley provides access to both Cupsuptic Lake and the Cupsuptic River, making it a convenient launch point for kayakers and canoeists exploring this scenic waterway in Oxford County. To reach the access site, take Route 4 from Rangeley toward Oquossoc, then turn right onto Route 16 toward Wilsons Mills. Continue approximately 1 mile past the Maine Forest Service Station, where you'll find the public boat access marked with a sign.
This launch serves paddlers looking for both flatwater paddling on Cupsuptic Lake and river exploration on the Cupsuptic River itself. The area offers good opportunities for fishing and day trips, and the nearby Cupsuptic Campground provides lodging options for those planning extended visits. The Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge is also accessible from this area, offering additional paddling and wildlife viewing opportunities for interested boaters.
