For an 11.4 kilometre one-way trip, launch into shallow water at Snake Flat Reserve on Bumbo Road and paddle up river to Silo Farm Bridge, Comerang Road, landing on the western side of the bridge. Check conditions, water levels and a map past Comerang Road as the river continues on for many kilometres and may be accessible with some rapids.

A shorter paddle from Snake Flat Reserve up the estuary and into Bumbo Lake is around 11 kilometres return if you circumnavigate the lake and explore Bumbo Creek.

To get to Snake Flat Reserve, turn west from the Princes Highway onto Bumbo Road. Travel 1km down Bumbo Road. A cattle grid and yellow "no camping" sign identifies the entrance to Snake Flat Reserve on your left. No facilities here but good cafes in Bodalla 3.7km drive further south on the Princes Highway.

Does not cater for people with access needs.
