THE LAUNCH
What to know before you go
Ballston Lake’s public fishing access site includes two launch bays for canoes and kayaks, including an ADA-accessible option. New York DEC also lists this location as a municipal hand launch with parking for about 20 cars.
This is the better public choice for paddlers who want a carry-in launch rather than the privately operated motorboat ramp elsewhere on the lake. The setup is simple and works well for a relaxed lake paddle, fishing trip, or short outing close to shore.
