Confluence River Access is a Bureau of Land Management river fishing access on the Kremmling Field Office in Colorado, about 1.8 miles from the town of Kremmling. It is a no-fee, non-reservable access point, so anglers can pull in without advance planning or cost. Summer is the most comfortable time to fish here. Typical averages from the nearby Kremmling weather station show July highs around 81°F with lows near 44°F, while winter highs stay in the 20s and 30s. Several other spots sit close by. The Colorado River Headwaters Scenic Byway is about a mile away, and Kimball Bridge (Highway 9) and Junction Butte Wetlands are each within about 1.5 miles. Red Mountain RV Park, roughly 1.8 miles off, offers a place to camp.
