About This Access Site
Located in the southwestern section of Leech Lake near Walker, Minnesota, Shingobee Island offers convenient public access to one of the lake's quieter areas. The ramp provides easy entry to Walker Bay and Agency Bay, making it an excellent launch point for kayakers and canoeists seeking calmer waters. This location is accessible off Shingobee Road NW and sits on Shingobee Island, which is connected to the mainland via Highway 371.
The ramp features a single lane with standard facilities. Walker Bay, where this landing is situated, is notably the deepest section of Leech Lake, providing deeper water conditions compared to other parts of the lake. This access point tends to be less crowded than some of the more central Leech Lake landings, making it ideal if you prefer quieter paddling conditions while still having access to the broader lake system.
