Lafayette Heritage Trail Park's boat ramp on Piney Z Lake is a hand-launch-only facility (no gasoline motors permitted) accessed via Heritage Park Boulevard, with a large dirt parking area and boats requiring a 120-foot carry to the launch.

The ramp provides access to the Lafayette Passage Paddling Trail, a marked 7. 8-mile round-trip route through Piney Z and Lower Lake Lafayette, with amenities including restrooms, drinking water, fishing piers, and floating docks at the main trailhead.
