Moundville Public Boat Ramp Temporarily Closes for Renovation

The Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries (WFF) Division of the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (ADCNR) will temporarily close the Moundville Public Boat Ramp for renovations on Monday, October 13, 2025. The facility provides boating and fishing access to the Warrior River 1 mile north of Moundville, Alabama.

During the closure the launching slab will be replaced. The new launching slab will be reoriented to allow for easier loading and unloading of boats. The ramp's new position will also reduce the likelihood of damage from larger vessels on the river. The improvements are expected to be completed in approximately three months. A reopening date will be announced when available.

Funding for this project was provided through the Sport Fish Restoration Program, which is supported through excise taxes on the sale of outboard motor fuel, fishing equipment and the sale of Alabama fishing licenses. Additional funding was provided by Innovate Alabama, a statewide public-private partnership focused on entrepreneurship, technology and innovation with a mission to help businesses grow roots in Alabama.

ADCNR promotes wise stewardship, management and enjoyment of Alabama's natural resources through four divisions: Marine Resources, State Lands, State Parks, and Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries. Learn more at www.outdooralabama.com.
