Fish Ladder Park

"This is one of my and my husband's favorite places to come and take walks and enjoy the beautiful scenery. We also love to go fishing near here! Just remember that there is no fishing allowed in the Fish Ladder itself!!!! We just came today and walked around a little bit south of the Fish Ladder and found a lot of usable and fixable lures, and also some very pretty shells. If you haven't visited Fish Ladder Park yet, I highly recommend it! If you have been here before, I also highly recommend you come back again soon! This place is so beautiful, and relaxing."

"It's a very beautiful place, not just the river. Small cozy park and observation deck on the river, convenient parking."

"Great place to grab lunch and sit to have a picnic. Feed the ducks. Some people wade out into the falls. There’s also a lookout that is beautiful. Small parking lot but no fees and usually not too busy."

"A cool invention and a real spectacle to watch the fish use it to circumvent the height of the damn to swim up stream."

"It was fun to go and watch the fish either succeeding up the ladder or not and trying again. Nice to see architectural art melding into nature. There is a walk way so that you can view the Grand river, the fishermen and the outline of the city. It's free to go. It was a bit busy but this is the time of year that the fish are going upstream and Art Prize is happening right now. We were still able to see the fish. They were really fast so I was not able to get a shot of the fish. It was still a cool experience."
