About this campground
The Marblemount boat launch is available for all motorized and non-motorized boats for white water rafting, fishing or nature viewing along the Skagit River. A short trail from the parking area leads to viewpoints of the Cascade and Skagit Rivers. There is also a small parking area to the east that provides walking access to the east end of the trail and property. This is a popular launch in winter for rafts and drift boats accessing the Skagit River Bald Eagle Natural Area between Marblemount and Rockport.
