San Joaquin Hatchery in Friant, CA, is a prominent producer of trout and inland salmon, offering a picturesque setting along the San Joaquin River for visitors to enjoy. With picnic grounds nestled among California native vegetation, guests can also marvel at the impressive wood-carved rainbow trout on display.
Part of the Friant Interactive Nature Site, the hatchery provides an educational and interactive experience for all ages, allowing visitors to witness salmonid life stages up close, explore themed play areas, and learn about conservation efforts in the region. The facility's upcoming Salmon Conservation and Research Facility will further enhance the visitor experience, connecting to the San Joaquin River Parkway Trail and Lost Lake Recreation Area upon completion.
