About This Access Site
This boat ramp in Danbury provides convenient access to the Saint Croix River, a 20-24 foot wide concrete ramp suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and motorboats. The ramp is part of the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway system, offering paddlers and boaters access to a popular recreational waterway known for fishing, boating, and kayaking. Be aware of rock debris near the dock area when launching or retrieving your vessel.

The Saint Croix River is a scenic and well-established paddling destination in northwest Wisconsin. Before your visit, check the National Park Service website for interactive river maps and current conditions. A county park sticker may be required for access; verify parking and permit requirements with Burnett County Parks or the local management authority. Life jackets are essential, and paddlers should be prepared for varying river conditions depending on water levels and season.
