Pyramid State Park

The Boulder Lake South boat ramp provides access to one of several lakes within Pyramid State Park near Pinckneyville in Perry County. This ramp serves paddlers and motorboaters looking to explore the park's lake system, which features largemouth bass, crappie, and bluegill. The park offers a quieter alternative to more crowded access points, as several of its lakes are accessible only by foot, allowing boaters to find less-trafficked paddling destinations.

**Important regulations:** All watercraft must operate at no-wake speed throughout Pyramid State Park waters. Motorboats are permitted with unlimited horsepower, but speed restrictions apply to all vessels. Note that camping is not available at this access site, so plan accordingly for day-use visits. The boat ramp location makes it convenient for launching kayaks, canoes, and small recreational boats to explore Boulder Lake and potentially access nearby water bodies within the park system.
