ALAMO TOWNSHIP
Most kayakers ignore Rupert Lake because of its small 28 acre size. My curiosity got the best of me, so I set out on a sunny May afternoon for a peaceful paddle.
The lake is located in the northwest corner of Kalamazoo County, in Alamo Township. The MDNR landing is on the north side of B Avenue, Between 2nd Street and 6th Street.
Most of the lakeshore is undeveloped and pleasant to paddle. A near-shore drop-off exists around most of the lake. The maximum depth is 29 feet.
The inlet to the lake is fun to explore.
The outlet is also entertaining.
A shoreline cruise completed my voyage.
Rupert is a perfect lake for a little relaxation!
