About

Clay City North is a boat launch in eastern Kentucky, about half a mile from the town of Clay City. It is a simple put-in point for getting a boat onto the water close to town, and its short distance from Clay City keeps the trip from town quick. September is a pleasant time for a launch here. Typical averages from a nearby weather station run from highs near 79°F to lows around 56°F, and that month has the fewest wet days of the year, about nine. Summer is warmer, with July highs averaging around 84°F, while winter brings January highs near 42°F and lows in the low 20s. You can pair a day on the water with a hike. Sage Point Trail is about 3.4 miles away, and Pilot's Knob State Park Trail is about 3.6 miles from the launch.
