Cliffside Paddling Access

You’ll find this access point near the southernmost stretch of land in The Parklands, a short distance from its Bardstown Road entryway. This is the last paddling access in The Parklands and should be used only as a take-out, unless you plan to paddle upstream to Broad Run Valley.
