Directions to Scioto Audubon Metro Park in Columbus, Ohio

The Columbus Recreation and Parks Department and Columbus Metro Parks have granted us permission to provide kayak rides at Scioto Audubon Metro Park in Columbus, Ohio.  Some important things to know about this location...

  • Please do NOT search for "Sunrise Kayaking" on your driving app or you will likely go to the wrong location. We operate at multiple locations. For directions to this location, please see the two maps below. We begin and end our rides at Scioto Audubon Metro Park Boat Ramp.
  • Free parking is available. There are typically plenty of spaces available for free parking at the two locations marked on the map below.
  • You will need to walk to our start and end location. After you park (see above), you will need to walk to our launch location which is the Scioto Audubon Metro Park Boat Ramp.  Please plan to park at least 15 minutes before your reservation starts to allow enough time to walk to our launch location.
  • There are bathrooms available in the park, but they are not close to the boat ramp. Please see the Metro Parks Map for bathroom locations. Keep in mind, the map may show a bathroom near the boat ramp, but there is currently no bathroom there.

  • Advanced reservations are required. Reservations allow us to have the equipment ready for you when you arrive. Reservations also allow us to notify you if we need to cancel rides due to the weather, river conditions, etc. Book a reservation
