Review & FAQ:
The American River Parkway is a 23-mile parkway and bicycle trail that connects a number of Sacramento's smaller public parks, stretching along the banks of the city's American River waterfront. The trail, which is accessible via several exits off Sacramento County's U.S. Route 50, is overseen by the American River parkway Foundation nonprofit organization. Sites along the trail include the 302-acre Discovery Park, which serves as the trailhead for the beautiful 32-mile Jedediah Smith Memorial Trail, and the spacious River Bend Park, one of the oldest public parks in Sacramento County. Indigenous history attractions, a golf course, and a nature center are offered at Ancil Hoffman Park, while a manmade fishing pond provides bass, trout, and catfish angling opportunities at William B. Pond Recreation Area. Parkgoers can also view the works of the region's anonymous "Rock Artist" at Watt Avenue Access Park.
