About This Access Site
The North Nebraska Street ramp in Horicon provides public access to the Rock River, a major 299-mile waterway flowing through Wisconsin. This concrete boat ramp is approximately 16 feet wide and accommodates small boats, canoes, and kayaks. The ramp is suitable for hand-launching paddlecraft and trailering small watercraft.
The Rock River at this location is a substantial stream with strong flow characteristics—averaging 8,773 cubic feet per second with a current velocity of approximately 4.5 feet per second. With a gentle average gradient of 1 foot per mile, paddlers should expect moderate current conditions typical of a major river system. This access point is located within easy reach of the Horicon National Wildlife Refuge, one of the largest freshwater marshes in the United States and a premier destination for wildlife viewing and paddling.
This is a publicly-owned Wisconsin DNR access site. For the most current information on hours, facilities, and conditions, consult the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources boat access database at dnr.wi.gov.
