About This Access Site
Simpson's Landing is a boat launch site located on the South Fork of the Shenandoah River in Warren County, Virginia. This access point provides an excellent entry point for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats looking to explore this scenic section of the river.

The Shenandoah River in this area is generally wide and slow-moving, making it well-suited for recreational paddling and boating. However, there are some Class I and II rapids nearby that experienced paddlers may wish to navigate. The river supports a variety of fish species including smallmouth bass, rock bass, and redbreast sunfish, making it a popular destination for anglers as well.

While specific details on hours of operation or fees are not available, the site appears to offer a gravel boat ramp and basic parking for access. Paddlers and boaters should use caution and plan appropriately, as services and amenities in the immediate area may be limited. Those looking for additional camping or recreation options can find a few nearby campgrounds and the Cedar Creek & Belle Grove National Historical Park within a short drive.
