About

Hamburg Ferry Access is a boat launch in Missouri, about half a mile from the town of Hamburg, Illinois, across the state line. For planning a trip, late spring and early fall tend to be the most comfortable times on the water. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 75°F with lows near 53°F, and September highs around 79°F with lows near 56°F. Several other spots lie within a short drive. Old Kings Lake Creek, a canoeing route, is about 4.6 miles away, and Bryants Creek, another paddling option, is about 5.8 miles out. For time off the water, the Unit 7 Trail is a hike roughly 5.1 miles from the launch.
