About This Access Site
The North First Street boat launch in Winneconne provides public access to the Wolf River via a dedicated boat ramp and adjacent docking facilities. This is a popular access point, especially during peak fishing seasons (walleye and white bass runs), so expect congestion during these periods. The site is publicly owned and managed, with daily permits and annual boat trailer parking permits available. Paddlers and boaters should confirm current permit requirements and any parking fees before visiting.
The Wolf River in this area is a moderate-sized warmwater stream suitable for motorboats, canoes, and kayaks. This access point is centrally located in Winneconne, making it convenient for day trips up or downstream. The nearby Buchman access (on County Road M) offers an alternative launch point if North First Street is crowded. Paddlers should check current river conditions, water levels, and any seasonal restrictions before launching, as the Wolf River's flow and accessibility can vary throughout the year.
