Arnold Creek Launching Ramp

Arnold Creek Launching provides public river access in Rising Sun, Ohio County, Indiana, offering a convenient put-in point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters. The ramp features a somewhat open tree canopy with substantial impervious surface (parking/concrete areas), designed in a State Park style. This is a straightforward access point with direct entry to Arnold Creek's waters.

The launch sits near the Markland Pool of the Ohio River system, an important navigation area where visitors can observe the locking process—making this a good base for exploring both Arnold Creek and the broader Ohio River network. Before launching, paddlers should check current water conditions and levels, as these can significantly affect paddling difficulty and safety on flowing rivers. The site appears to have adequate vehicle parking and is managed for public access.
