Indiana’s first accessible canoe, kayak launch opens

Want to enjoy some time on the water? Now in northwestern Indiana, everyone can!

"A new accessible boat launching facility in northwestern Indiana will make it easier for paddlers of all abilities to get on the water. The canoe and kayak launch at Michigan City’s Hansen Park complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), making it the first of its kind in Indiana.

Known as an EZ Launch, the facility will help make Trail Creek and the Lake Michigan Water Trails system more accessible for both able-bodied paddlers and paddlers with physical limitations."
