About This Access Site
The Flat Rock Boat Ramp provides convenient access to the lower Huron River in Wayne County, located at Seneca Street east of Telegraph Road. This is an established launch point on the Huron River Water Trail, offering ample parking and easy river access for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters. The ramp's protected location makes it a good choice for paddlers seeking a calmer entry to the water.
The final nine miles of the Huron River from Flat Rock flow unimpeded to Lake Erie, offering relatively gentle conditions ideal for recreational paddling. Paddlers should note that this lower section transitions from river to estuary conditions as it approaches the lake. The site is part of the Huron River Water Trail system, which maintains approximately 40 access points throughout the river corridor from Milford to Lake Erie.
The location places paddlers near several points of interest, including the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge and River Raisin National Battlefield Park, making it a good base for exploring the lower Huron River region. For specific information about current conditions, fees, or facility hours, contact local management or check the Huron River Water Trail program website.
