About This Access Site
This take-out site on Boone Creek in Lexington serves as an exit point for whitewater paddlers completing runs on this popular urban Kentucky creek. Boone Creek offers a mix of Class I-II whitewater sections that wind through the Lexington area, making it accessible to paddlers with varying skill levels. As a take-out location, this site provides a place to exit the water after your paddle and is typically used in conjunction with put-in sites upstream.

Boone Creek is a flowing river system rather than a lake, so paddlers should expect moving water conditions and be prepared for the associated dynamics of creek paddling. The creek passes through or near Lexington's urban and suburban areas, offering a convenient local paddling option. Take-out sites are essential for planning any paddling trip, and having a designated exit point helps ensure safe and legal access to the water.
