American River Parkway - Sacramento Bar Area

Each season Sacramento Bar river access adds a special touch to the uniqueness of the American River Parkway, located just across from the Lower Sunrise Recreation Area. 

Sacramento Bar is a popular spot along the river year-round. Winter and autumn find salmon fishermen elbow-to-elbow in the chilly water. Summer finds legions of rafters drifting past the San Juan Rapids past picnicking families. Spring brings wildflowers, animals and nature-seeking hikers to the area.
