The Maple View boat ramp provides easy access to the Tennessee River and Nickajack Lake for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats. Located along Old Ladds Road in New Hope, Tennessee, the ramp is situated in a scenic day-use area with ample parking.
The Tennessee River at this location is part of the Nickajack Lake impoundment, characterized by relatively calm, slow-moving waters. Paddlers can easily reach nearby attractions like Russell Cave National Monument, which preserves an important archaeological site, by launching from the Maple View ramp. While there are no fees to access the site, boaters should be aware of typical lake rules and regulations for the area. Those seeking more information or to plan a trip can refer to the US Army Corps of Engineers' navigation charts for the Tennessee River.
