The downloadable Overview Map shows current river access locations from Pennsylvania to Lake Ontario.  A web-based Interactive Map gives users detailed information about each access point, including photos of the sites. Printed copies of the Overview Map are available at access points. The online map is updated as necessary to provide current information about access points.

The Blueway map was launched in 2020 by Genesee RiverWatch who partnered with the Genesee Valley Conservancy and Genesee River Wilds to develop these materials. The work was funded by a $25,000 grant from New York Sea Grant and financial and in-kind support from the Greater Allegany County Chamber of Commerce.  As part of this project, Genesee RiverWatch developed a prioritized list of sites for new and improved access based on input from stakeholders and citizens, aerial imaging, GIS, the work of others, and site visits. This work is summarized in the Genesee River Canoe/Kayak Access Improvement Plan 2019.
