Located in Wahkon on the western shore of Mille Lacs Lake, the Mille Lacs Avenue access site provides a convenient public boat ramp for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboat users. This site is one of several public launch points around Minnesota's largest inland lake, making it a practical option for accessing the 207-square-mile water body. The ramp accommodates various vessel types, from small paddlecraft to larger recreational boats.
Paddlers should note that Mille Lacs Lake is a substantial body of water with variable wind and wave conditions, so trip planning and weather awareness are important considerations. The Wahkon area offers good access to both fishing and recreational paddling opportunities. Nearby, the Mille Lacs National Wildlife Refuge provides additional exploration opportunities for wildlife viewing. Boaters are advised to check current conditions and any applicable launch fees before visiting, as rates and seasonal access may apply.
