Indiana’s Elite Adventure Outfitter for Boat Tours, Kayak, and Backpack shuttle service. We make water adventures happen!

The Upper Patoka River offers some of the best kayaking opportunities in the area, with the water extending from State Road. 37 downstream to the State Road. 145 bridge. The stretch between S County Road 110 and the Ethyl Road King’s Bridge Landing is particularly exciting, as the river is fast and winding, making it an excellent float from April to the first week of July. This section requires ample rainfall to ensure good water levels.

As you navigate downstream, the Patoka River transitions from a stream to lake backwaters due to the presence of the Patoka Reservoir. The current changes from swift to barely detectable, providing a different kayaking experience. The reservoir backwater area is known for being an outstanding fishery, with plenty of opportunities for fishing and birdwatching, including seeing osprey nests.

During warmer weather, the section from Walls Lake landing downstream is great for swimming, adding an extra element of fun to your kayaking adventure. With so much to see and do along the way, plan to spend a full day exploring the Upper Patoka River and taking in all the natural beauty it has to offer.
