About This Access Site
Epler's Landing is a boat ramp providing access to the Schuylkill River in Reading, Berks County. The launch is designed for small craft including kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats. **A launch permit is required.** The site offers limited parking for approximately 5 vehicles, so plan accordingly, especially during peak paddling times.
This access point is ideal for paddlers exploring the lower Schuylkill River and provides a convenient launch for day trips on this scenic waterway. The modest parking capacity makes it best suited for smaller groups or solo paddlers. Given the permit requirement, be sure to check with local authorities beforehand to understand current regulations and any associated fees before your visit.
