It has been several years since our last paddle on the Wolf River, and it is once again time to paddle this very scenic river. The distance is not long, plus we will be moving with the slow current. The Wolf River is a very twisty river with lots of wild areas surrounding it.
This trip will convince you that the Wolf is a beautiful river, in stretches. Much more rural than what you’re used to seeing around the Fox Cities, the river embraces pastures, fields and swamps.
The Stephensville Access boat launch is on the north side of Highway S, just east of the Wolf River bridge. There is a gravel road back to the boat launch area.
Drop off your boat and gear at the Stephensville Access boat launch, then drive your vehicle to the Buchman Access boat launch (Hwy S west to Hwy M south) and look for the return shuttle vehicle(s). Please leave spaces for vehicle with trailers and do not park on the grass. There is no launch fee at either access.
The Buchman Access Boat launch is on the west side of Highway M, just south of the Wolf River bridge, across the river from Damn Yankees Watering Hole.
