About This Access Site
Mazomanie Landing is a public boat ramp providing access to the Wisconsin River in Dane County. Located six miles downriver of Sauk City and five miles upriver of Arena, this landing serves as a convenient put-in or take-out point along one of Wisconsin's most popular riverway stretches. The Town of Mazomanie maintains the facility and requires a **$2 launch fee per visit**, with annual passes available for $20 by mail.
The landing accommodates both motorboats and paddle craft, though water conditions and launch depth can vary seasonally. Paddlers using this access can explore the picturesque Lower Wisconsin Riverway, a scenic corridor known for abundant wildlife and sandbar camping opportunities. The area is home to local outfitters like Blackhawk River Runs, which offers canoe rentals and trip planning assistance (608-544-2906). Nearby alternative access points include Sauk City upstream and Arena downstream, providing flexibility for planning multi-day trips or shuttle paddles.
