The Highway 349 Bridge boat ramp provides access to the Pecos River near Iraan in Pecos County. This access point allows kayakers, canoeists, and small boaters to launch directly into the river from a paved ramp. The location offers straightforward vehicle and trailer access, making it convenient for getting watercraft to the water quickly.
Paddlers should be aware that water levels on the Pecos River vary seasonally and are influenced by Amistad Reservoir operations upstream. Even during lower water conditions, the ramp typically allows boat launches, though high water periods may present easier loading and unloading conditions. The area around the Highway 349 Bridge crossing provides scenic canyon views characteristic of this section of the river. Before launching, check current water conditions and river levels, as the Pecos can fluctuate significantly depending on reservoir releases and local precipitation.
