About This Access Site
This is a take-out access point on the West Fork of the Pigeon River in Haywood County, North Carolina. As a whitewater take-out, this site is designed for paddlers completing a run on this section of river to safely exit the water. The West Fork Pigeon is known for its whitewater characteristics and attracts kayakers and canoeists looking for river paddling experiences. Being a take-out location rather than a launch site, this access point serves as the endpoint for river trips and allows boaters to remove their boats and gear from the water.
