Share With a Friend     Contact Us About this Site

Description: This scenic area straddles the San Joaquin River just upstream from Millerton Lake State Park and includes lands in both Fresno and Madera Counties. Hikers and horseback riders who use the San Joaquin River Gorge Trail will have access to several thousand acres of public land.

In Madera County, the visitor has a choice of the Six-Mile Loop Trail or the River Trail, which starts off of the west side of the Loop Trail. About four miles long, it connects with Millerton Lake State Recreation Area. The BLM trail follows along the river and leads the traveler through oak woodlands with their mixture of foothill pines.

On the Fresno County side of the area is a portion of the San Joaquin River Trail which leads south and west.
