About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** Dyess Ditch Road Dirt Ramp provides access to Rim Canal in Glades County, Florida. Be prepared for a 2.3-mile dirt road drive to reach the ramp, which may be rough or muddy depending on recent weather conditions. High-clearance or off-road capable vehicles are recommended.
**Paddling Conditions:** Rim Canal offers a scenic paddling opportunity through Florida's inland waterways in the Glades region. This area is suitable for kayakers and canoeists seeking a quieter, more natural waterway experience away from major highway corridors. Water levels and conditions can vary seasonally, so check current conditions before your trip.
**Before You Go:** Contact local Glades County authorities or the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to confirm the ramp is open and accessible, as dirt ramps are subject to seasonal closures due to weather, maintenance, or special events. This remote location means facilities may be limited, so plan accordingly with supplies and navigation tools.
