Flagg Ranch Boat Launch: Plan the River Trip“Flagg Ranch Boat Launch is coming up, a gravel-road ramp on the Snake River near the highway bridge. If you're sightseeing, I'd keep going; this is mainly small-boat access.”

“…We have been driving around with the audio tour and it has been informational and spot on. The whole family has been impressed. We used it for Yellowstone and Grand Teton.”
Guide
A park boat permit and Wyoming's aquatic invasive species inspection and decal are required before you launch. Park boat permits are available online or at permit desks at Craig Thomas Discovery and Visitor Center and Colter Bay Visitor Center during summer operations. Take care of those steps before heading to the ramp.
Facilities are minimal. There's a restroom, but bring your own water, as the park advises. This is straightforward river access rather than a developed marina.
