There’s lot of places to Kayak in and around Madison, but this is my favorite.
I like to put in at the Camp Randall Rowing Club Brittingham Boat House located at 617 N Shore Dr, Madison, WI 53703. There’s a dock and free 3 hour parking. Once in the water just paddle straight towards John Nolen Drive and go under the bridge and you’ll be in Lake Monona. Keep going and soak in the lovely city skyline of Madison with the Monona Terrace and the Capitol building.
If you don’t have your own boat, head down the street a bit to and you can rent one there at Brittingham Boats.
Afterwards, you can check out the view you just had on land at this awesome coffee shop: Lakeside Street Coffee House.
-Porta Potty in the parking lot
-There’s about 10 parking spots in the lot, so get there early or go on a weekday
