California has a new State Park about 90 miles east of San Francisco.
Dos Rios opened last week and is the first new State Park in more than a decade for a state known for its lush plethora of outdoor activities.
It is 1,600 acres and the largest floodplain restoration project in California, which already boasts more than 275 state parks.
“The park itself is located on the Pacific Flyway, and we’re also adjacent to the San Joaquin River National Wildlife Refuge. So there are a lot of interesting birds and wildlife to see,” Park Superintendent Paige Haller said.
Wildlife, both in the air and on the ground, is abundant.
“Not only will the new park provide critical habitat for plants and animals, it’s also creating opportunities for people to improve their mental and physical well-being by having more access to the outdoors,” Haller said.
State Park officials plan to keep adding to the park, including greater water access. The public is invited to contribute ideas to expand Dos Rios.
“We’re in a very unique position to be able to build this from the ground up and really build it with the community,” said Danielle Gerhart, Central Valley District superintendent.
California, of course, has a ton of activities.
