Belmont Beach is a small riverside park packed it full of different activities. There is a small loop mulch trail in the park, and many people also wander down into the floodplain forest to explore. There are three shaded picnic tables available for use. Fire pits are provided, but you’ll need to bring your own firewood. The site is also popular with fisherman. You will need a DNR license, and be aware of fish consumption advisories if you plan on taking your catch home. During events, serves as the backdrop for a performance platform.

The river around the dam flows very fast, can be unexpectedly deep, and has dangerous currents that can trap you. Drownings have occurred here. Please be careful and keep children near you.

Overnight camping is not permitted.

Yes, but please respect park rules. Specifically, do not bring glass containers into the sandy or mulched playground areas. Trash cans are provided for your convenience. Please help us keep the site clean and litter out of the river.

The rocks are remnants of a collapsed dam. They can be slippery and unstable, and the water flows fast with strong undercurrents that can trap you underwater. In short, it’s not safe to walk on them.

Drinking the water, splashing water in the face, or full-body contact with the water such as swimming is not advised due to poor water quality. You may get sick doing these activities. We advise washing or sanitizing hands after any contact with the water.

Portions of this park have video security cameras. These are here to keep you and the park property safe and are controlled by neighborhood partners. Any recordings will only be used in the event of criminal activity.
