Shelby Boat Ramp

Shelby Boat Ramp provides access to the Kankakee River National Water Trail at mile 65. 0 of the 75-mile Indiana paddling route.

The ramp was recently renovated to address sediment buildup issues and features a new orientation that allows year-round boater access.

Located at Route 55 and the Kankakee River in Shelby, it serves as a convenient mid-trail access point between Grand Kankakee Marsh County Park (4. 4 miles upstream) and LaSalle Fish & Wildlife Area's White Oak Bayou Access (6. 9 miles downstream).
