Cisco Grove Gould Park
South Yuba River meanders through the small Placer County park developed in 2006. Paved parking, vault toilets, picnic tables. But the attraction is the dense grove of cottonwoods.
...when the leaves have turned brilliant yellows, the area offers excellent, intimate photographic opportunities.
...easy to stroll through the trees and cross the bridge to visit both sides of the river.
DESCRIPTION:
Easy stroll through the grove next to the picnic site. Elevation: 5620’.
Especially, in the fall when the leaves have turned brilliant yellows, the area offers excellent, intimate photographic opportunities. Although there are no developed trails, it is easy to stroll through the trees and cross the bridge to visit both sides of the river.
DIRECTIONS:
To Cisco Grove Gould Park
Take the Cisco Grove exit to the north side of I-80 where the park lies between there and Old Highway 40. Parking is on a signed access road lying on the south side of the river and next to I-80
ACTIVITIES:
Hiking - Dayhikes (Rating: Best)
This area offers strolls through the cottonwood grove and play opportunities along the river that are limited only by their imaginations. For small children, the “hikes” become big adventures.
Fishing (Rating: Good)
Great access and upstream enough that waters are cold and free of trash fish.
