Mid-South Canoe and Kayak Guide
| DESTINATIONS - McKellar Lake | ||
| If you absolutely have to get out on the water but don't have much time, McKellar Lake might do. We have been out to McKellar Lake in search of a short paddle after work during the longer daylight hours of late summer and had a decent time. While this is far from the wildlife refuges of the area, the industrial feel is an interesting change. It is a pretty big lake, so you could paddle for hours if you want to, just watch out for barges and other boats. | ||

The only place I know to put-in is at the marina in Martin Luther King Riverside Park south of downtown. From I-55, take the Mallory Ave exit and drive west towards the refinery gate. Just before reaching the gate, make a slight right and drive uphill into the park. Follow this main road north until reaching the marina.
