About

River Park Canoe Landing is a boat launch in Michigan, about 2.7 miles from Brownlee Park. It is a simple put-in point for paddlers. For a trip on the water, late spring through early fall is the most comfortable stretch. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Battle Creek run from highs around 70°F in May to about 83°F in July, with roughly 10 to 13 wet days a month through the season. The landing sits close to two longer routes for anyone wanting to stretch their legs off the water. The North Country National Scenic Trail and the Calhoun County Trailway both pass within about a mile.
