About This Access Site
The Route 23 under exit ramp put-in provides access to the Pequannock River in West Milford, a popular whitewater paddling destination in northern New Jersey. This location serves as a convenient entry point for kayakers and canoeists looking to run whitewater sections of the Pequannock. The access point is situated beneath the Route 23 exit ramp, making it relatively easy to locate from the highway.

Paddlers using this put-in should be aware that access to whitewater rivers typically requires some paddling skill, as the Pequannock can have varying current speeds and obstacles depending on water levels and the specific section being paddled. The site's location in West Milford places it within a scenic area of northern New Jersey with multiple paddling opportunities. Water conditions on the Pequannock can vary seasonally, so checking current conditions before launching is recommended.
