Short scenic drive to one of the most beautiful river spots in the area.

One of the many iconic destinations along the South Fork of the Yuba River. We are also near the Middle and North Forks. Swimming, hiking, fishing, and kayaking await you. Parking can be tough, but we'll drop you and pick you up if you'd like.

Very popular with the locals. Hiking trails along the river and beautiful pools for swimming.

Great place to hike up and down the river, and spend the day in the water and elements!

Please please be very respectful of the river. It is a very special place. Pack out what you pack in. Locals strongly discourage music being played out of a speaker. No glass (you could get fined for this by rangers) and absolutely no fires. Just generally be cool. Keep in mind people swim naked in certain spots, so don't be surprised by that. Just under the South Yuba Bridge there is a great swimming spot with lots of parking. Located off Highway 49 towards North San Juan.
