Krotz Springs Campground

Krotz Springs Campground offers convenient public boat launch access to the Atchafalaya River, the largest tributary of the Mississippi River. The ramp accommodates launches at various water depths, making it suitable for kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. The campground's riverside location in St. Landry Parish provides a good base for exploring the scenic Atchafalaya Basin and its extensive sandbars.

Paddlers launching here can access the broader Atchafalaya River system and nearby sandbars for day trips or longer expeditions. The area sits near the Atchafalaya National Wildlife Refuge and within the 595,000-acre Atchafalaya Basin, the largest contiguous bottomland hardwood forest in the United States. If you're planning to camp alongside your paddling trip, the facility offers full amenities with multiple campsites featuring hookup services.
