Stay on County Road 56 for another 10 miles until coming to a second stop sign. Take a left (County Road 5) and continue south at Marble Valley toward Hidden Valley (please note that this paved road eventually turns to gravel and all roads beyond this point are also gravel, some of which are difficult to maneuver while pulling a boat due to numerous sharp turns). Before arriving at Hidden Valley turn left on un-named road and continue to second road on the right. Turn right and continue on this road which will eventually lead to the boat ramp.

Protect Alabama Waters and Stop Aquatic Hitchhikers!
As Alabamians, we love to spend time on the water. Protecting these resources is an important part of our overall enjoyment. A concern we must all address is the spreading of harmful plants, animals and other organisms. These aquatic nuisance species can hitch a ride on our clothing, boats, and items used in the water. When we go to another lake or stream, the nuisance species can be released. And, if the conditions are right, these introduced species can become established and create drastic results.
So what can we do? By following simple procedures each time we leave the water, we can stop aquatic hitchhikers.
