About the Bidwell-Sacramento River State Park
Bidwell-Sacramento River State Park, located at 12105 River Road in Chico, California, is a beautiful park and tourist attraction that offers a variety of outdoor activities for visitors to enjoy. While online reservations are not available for this park, visitors can partake in bank or boat fishing for salmon, steelhead, and shad, or go "cruising down the river" on inner tubes, canoes, or kayaks.
This park is a great example of a disappearing natural resource - the riverine habitat. The landscapes along the river are constantly changing and offer stunning scenic beauty. The riparian plant and animal communities in the park depend on each other, with massive oaks and cottonwoods providing shade for cool-water creatures, and a variety of plant species offering shelter to a diverse wildlife population.
Visitors can explore the park and learn about the riparian community by taking a walk along the river. The park is easily accessible from Chico or I-5, and offers different day use areas such as Indian Fishery, Big Chico Creek, Pine Creek, and Irvine Finch River Access, each with its own unique features and activities.
Whether you're looking to relax by the river, go fishing, bird watching, or enjoy a picnic in nature, Bidwell-Sacramento River State Park has something for everyone. Don't forget to dress in layered clothing, as the weather can vary throughout the year. Come and experience the beauty and tranquility of this natural oasis in Northern California.

Reviews of Bidwell-Sacramento River State Park
"awesome place to walk the trails with my dog and enjoy the peace 9f nature"
"While we had been hoping to enjoy birding in another state park, closer to Red Bluff, driving to Chico in Butte County was a gem. We could not tell if we had to pay as we came through the gates, and meeting up with employee where we stopped let us know, this end was free. WOW, what a deal! A year ago my sister-in-law had given me a brochure on local birding. And, with my nephew having just graduated from Chico State, we could not pass up the opportunity. There are many turnouts along this area, but we chose the last one. A nice walking trail with so many butterflies (Palmedes Swallowtail) my camera thought they were birds. There are two ways to take the trail, but as State Park Employee emphasized, tuck your pant legs and where boots as rattle snakes may be lurking. There were so many native plants using my inaturalist app was exciting. My favorite of the day was definitely the Floating Primrose-willow. It was a wonderful hiding spot for Herons and Egrets. Plus baby ducklings. Bird species we saw: Belted Kingfisher (one male); Acorn WP; Spotted Towhee; Bullock's Oriole; Western Wood Pewee; Black-headed Grosbeak; Oak Titmouse; Common Raven; CA Scrub-jay White-breasted Nuthatch; Am. Robin; Nuttall's WP; Northern Flicker; Ash-Throated Flycatcher; Bushtit; Greater Yellowlegs; Great Blue Heron; Great White Egret; Black Phoebe; House Wren Red-shouldered Hawk; Red-tailed Hawk; Wood Ducks(7) and family of new ducklings with mother Wood Duck; Wild Turkey (female)."
"Very peaceful when I visited here with my dogs. Seen a family of otters which was cool. Will be back in the summer to try some fishing."
"One of my favorite places to go relax and enjoy the view. You can fish, swim and soak up some sun."
"Best place for dog swimming. Perfect for a short getaway, canoeing, swimming, rafting, fishing, short walks with few people. Plenty of little turnouts along River Road for resting. Allot of drive up small parks and boat launches for fishing. And it's a nearby alternative to five mile at Bidwell when it's crowded."
