Long Lake Boat Ramp

Long Lake Boat Ramp is a free public access point managed by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, serving as the primary launch for the Long Lake Water Trail loop through backwater sloughs and the Mississippi River.

The ramp can be busy with powerboaters, has limited parking (avoid trailer spots; consider parking along Lake Road shoulders or nearby pull-off carry-in access points), and lacks outhouses.

The location provides access to a 5-mile marked water trail featuring scenic Mississippi River bluffs, sandbars, and seasonal wild rice corridors, though paddlers should bring GPS as blue trail markers aren't always clearly placed.
