About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** Located near Corbin in Whitley County, Laurel Bridge provides access to the upper arm of Laurel River Lake via KY 312. From I-75 North of Williamsburg, take Exit 29 to Corbin, head west on KY 770 (1.3 miles), then turn left on KY 312 (0.4 mile). The ramp is situated near Laurel Bridge Picnic Area, offering convenient parking and facilities.

**Water Conditions & Recreation:** Laurel River Lake features 5,600 acres of clear, deep water with nearly 200 miles of tree-lined shoreline. The upper arm accessed here provides quiet coves and scenic cliff-lined shores ideal for kayaking and canoeing. The lake is known as one of Kentucky's deepest and cleanest bodies of water. Fishing opportunities abound once you're on the water (multiple species including bass, trout, walleam, and crappie), though fishing from the ramp itself is not permitted. Nearby highlights include Three Sisters Rock, a prominent bluff viewable from an overlook at the adjacent picnic area. The lake lies within Daniel Boone National Forest, adding to its scenic appeal for paddlers seeking a peaceful paddling experience.
