Floodplains are extremely important for maintaining environmental balance and overall human well-being in the surrounding area. Floodplains help to mitigate future flood risk, conserve biodiversity, replenish groundwater, sequester carbon, and enhance public health through access to open space. The Dos Rios property was originally a floodplain before being occupied by farmland. It has now been restored to its natural state.
Efforts led by community organizations, including River Partners and Tuolumne River Trust, began the restoration of the property in 2012. After acquiring the land, the groups began replanting native trees and vegetation along the two converging rivers, the San Joaquin and Tuolumne rivers, restoring the area to its natural state and creating habitat for many endangered and threatened species.
This park is currently free and open to visitors on Fridays, Saturdays , Sundays and on Monday holidays from 7am to 5pm.
The park, which is currently open for day use, provides lots of options for outdoor activities. The park currently has two trails open for self-guided hikes and is a great place to have a picnic, bird watch, speak with a park interpreter or attend one of the organized events.
