Greenbelt Trail

Located in Clarkston at the confluence of the Snake and Clearwater rivers near the US 12 Blue Bridge, the Greenbelt Boat Ramp is a public access point managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The facility features a paved boat ramp and large parking lot, making it a convenient launch point for paddlers and boaters exploring Lower Granite Lake and the surrounding river system. The ramp is easily accessible from Fair Street in downtown Clarkston, just north of the interstate bridge.

This location serves as an excellent trailhead for kayakers and canoeists interested in exploring the lower Granite Lake area or paddling the Snake and Clearwater rivers. The site's proximity to the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail adds cultural significance to trips in the area. Nearby recreation options include Reservoir A (a 146-acre impoundment with 3 miles of shoreline as part of the Lewiston Orchards Project) and the 22-mile Clearwater & Snake River National Recreation Trail for walking and cycling.

Before launching, check with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Walla Walla District office (located at the site) for current conditions, water levels, and any seasonal restrictions on Lower Granite Lake.
