The Demopolis City Landing on the Black Warrior River provides convenient access for kayakers, canoeists, and other boaters. This large boat ramp and parking area is located on the northern section of the recreation site, overlooking the river.
The Black Warrior River is a major waterway, classified as a large river (7th order stream) with a total length of 168 miles. It has an average flow of over 10,800 cubic feet per second and a relatively gentle gradient of 1.1 feet per mile. These characteristics make the Black Warrior suitable for a variety of watercraft, from small kayaks to larger motor boats.
In recent years, the launch facilities have been expanded and modernized through a partnership between the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources and the City of Demopolis. These improvements help meet the growing demand for public river access in the area. Paddlers and boaters will find the Demopolis City Landing a practical option for exploring this scenic section of the Black Warrior River.
