The Highway 134 Bridge access point provides convenient public access to the Pine River near St. Ignace in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. This launch site offers approximately 40 feet of ramp width, making it suitable for kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. The location serves as a good starting point for exploring this scenic river system and is one of several access points along the Pine River corridor.
Paddlers should note that the Pine River has multiple launch and take-out options, allowing for various trip lengths and distances. This access site is well-positioned for both short day paddles and longer downstream excursions.
