The river offers ample opportunities to explore its shores and water. Canoeing, kayaking, tubing and boating are popular in and around the facility. Birders flock to the river banks to spot such rare and unique species as the Mexican mallard, Lucifer hummingbird, Mexican jay, black-capped and gray vireos, Colima warbler and varied bunting. Visitors are often the eyes and ears for birding in the park and are encouraged to report sightings at the visitor center.
Hiking trails are also found nearby the campground.
We offer a compact version of Go-Mexico for mobile users, allowing you to access just the information you need on the road. Of course, you can still use the full version of Go-Mexico on your mobile device just as you can on your desktop.
