Short walk |
From the twin cities (Saint Paul/Minneapolis) take Hwy 169 North. Shortly before you hit the lake turn right onto Hwy 27 East. Before Isle follow signs to Father Hennepin State Park. To find the launch once inside the park just keep turning right. There is a small parking lot with some stairs down to the beach.

Kite at your own risk but please respect the local swimmers, boaters, etc. The state park provides a great place to spend the day for those non sailors that may be with you.
