The American River Cleanup and White Water Paddle has been rescheduled to
Saturday, October 1, 2022. The Fall American River Cleanup had to be postponed from it's original September date because of the Mosquito Fire. The Confluence area has now been reopened and we are able to proceed with the cleanup on October 1. See the flyer with info here. Parts of the Auburn State Recreation Area are still closed. See info about which areas are closed here. |
The Auburn State Recreation Area is expanding vehicle access to the American River Canyon at China Bar to seven days a week on January 4th from 7:00 a.m. to sunset, twelve years after it first opened on January 1, 2010.
The Birdsall and Oregon Bar river access dirt/gravel roads are included. Wet weather could force temporary closure of these roads.
The area is very popular for fishermen, swimmers, picnickers, hikers, runners, equestrian and mountain bike riders. The area also provides important access for rafters paddling from the Confluence and kayakers refining their paddling skills at the Pump Station Rapids aka Auburn's Aquatic River Park.

Iowa Hill Bridge to Upper Lake Clementine.
The Protect American River Canyon (PARC) Board Members extend to you an enthusiastic invitation to explore the American River Canyons for yourself and discover this area rich in biological diversity, Native American and Gold Rush history and exciting recreational adventure for all to responsibly enjoy and care for. The Auburn State Recreation Area, located along 48 miles of the North and Middle Forks from Auburn to Colfax and Foresthill in the American River Watershed, offers diverse recreational options and seemingly limitlessness opportunities for meaningful wilderness experiences in scenic picturesque canyons for everyone. Over 100 miles of trails, framed in the springtime by a rainbow pallet of wildflowers and butterflies, host world class endurance events and leisurely trail hikers, equestrians and mountain bikers. Both river forks attract whitewater enthusiasts from Class V adrenaline fans to Class 1 family boaters. Swimming and fishing are very popular seasonally. The Cave Valley Limestone Quarry walls offer a challenge to beginner and advanced climbers. Charming picture perfect Lake Clementine offers year-round motor boating, paddling and lake camping.
