About This Access Site
The Lansingburg boat ramp on the Hudson River provides convenient access for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats. Located just 0.27 miles upstream from the start of the Champlain Canal, this municipal launch site offers a paved ramp and a small parking area.

The Hudson River at this point is approximately 500 feet wide, with a gentle current typical of the Tidal Hudson region. Depths are generally sufficient for launching and maneuvering small watercraft, though boaters should be aware of fluctuating water levels. The proximity to the Champlain Canal means this access site may see moderate boat traffic from recreational users of the historic waterway.

For those seeking additional amenities, a private marina is located nearby, and the surrounding Lansingburg neighborhood offers restaurants and other services. Paddlers and boaters should check water and weather conditions before launching, and always exercise caution when navigating this major waterway.
