Lake Louise state park developed shallow boat ramp

The feel

This is a shallow gravel beach launch, set inside the campground along Lake Louise Road. It takes small boats on shallow trailers, so it suits a modest rig rather than a big one.

The lake holds lake trout, whitefish, burbot and arctic grayling. The lake trout run from 8 to 12 pounds, and 20-pounders are not uncommon. The campground around the launch has 67 campsites and no RV size limit, with toilets and water on site, and it is operated by Lake Louise Lodge.

Mingo says

Fishing holds up year-round, so you are not tied to one window. Day use is also available, so you can launch without booking a campsite.

Before you go

• Call Lake Louise Lodge at 907-822-3311, which operates the campground, about fees and camping.
• Bring your own firewood, since none is provided.
• Expect to pay for the boat launch, day use or camping.
• Match your trailer to the ramp: it takes small boats with shallow trailers.
