Dunn's Bridge County Park Access

Dunn's Bridge County Park offers the only designated public access point to the Kankakee River in Porter County, featuring a concrete boat launch pad beneath the historic 180-foot pedestrian bridge and free parking in a large lot on the north side.

This award-winning restored bridge, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, provides convenient access for launching canoes, kayaks, and motorboats to paddle or motor downstream to other river destinations.

The park is open dawn to dusk daily at no cost, though visitors should note limited cellular service in the area.
