    Scenic Park Kayak Launch

    Parks | Visit | Parks | Rocky River Reservation | Scenic Park Kayak Launch

    Paddlers can launch here to access the calm waters of the Rocky River. Paddlers should expect to see a variety of powerboats in this area, so understanding the Rules of the Road (navigation rules all boaters must follow) is important. Heading North or down river, paddlers will reach the Lake Erie Water Trail in about a mile. The mouth of the river can be very turbulent. Proceed with caution if entering Lake Erie and move through quickly as boat traffic is extremely bottlenecked here. There is an accessible kayak launch available when conditions permit. Confirm ADA access with the Emerald Necklace Marina: 216-226-3030.
