Welcome to Dos Rios!
Dos Rios is located on the confluence of the Tuolumne River and the San Joaquin River in the Central Valley. Where ranch life meets nature, Dos Rios is the largest and most unique floodplain restoration project in California completed by River Partners. Once farmland now restored floodplain, Dos Rios provides the perfect habitat for several protected species such as, the riparian brush rabbit, riparian woodrat, Swainson’s hawk, Central Valley Chinook salmon, steelhead trout, least Bell’s vireo, and the greater Sandhill crane. Dos Rios is also a destination for migratory birds along the pacific flyway.
As part of the planning process, the official name and park classification of Dos Rios will be determined and approved by the California State Park and Recreation Commission soon. State Parks will be providing more updates about the opening of Dos Rios in the weeks to come.
