About This Access Site
Albany Park is a 15-acre park in Albany, Wisconsin offering public access to the Sugar River via a single-lane concrete boat ramp located next to a fishing pier. This is a straightforward launch point suitable for canoes, kayaks, and small motorboats. The concrete ramp provides more reliable access than some nearby alternatives on the Sugar River.

The site includes parking for vehicles and trailers, making it convenient for paddlers planning trips on this scenic section of the river. From Albany Park, paddlers can access a 2.5-mile stretch of Sugar River upstream to Highway EE, which features some lake paddling characteristics. The river in this region includes wooded sections, sandbars, and good current in places, offering moderate paddling conditions. Downstream access is also available for those looking to explore other portions of the waterway, though paddlers should be aware of potential hazards like logjams in certain sections.
