Hanging Horn Lake is a 409-acre lake in Carlton County near Barnum, offering public boat access via this ramp. With a maximum depth of 80 feet, the lake provides good depth for various watercraft. The access point is conveniently located off Highway 13, making it straightforward to find and launch kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. This is a solid option for paddlers looking to explore a substantial lake in the Carlton County area.
The nearby Little Hanging Horn Lake (114 acres, max depth 70 feet) is also accessible from a public launch just southeast of Barnum, giving boaters the option to explore two connected water bodies in the same area. Both lakes support fishing and recreational paddling. Before visiting, check local conditions and any facility details with Carlton County or Minnesota DNR resources, as ramp maintenance and seasonal access can vary.
