Activities

Johnson Ferry South offers approximately 1.5 miles of trails that border the river. The trails were once a dirt farm road when the area was farmland in the early twentieth century. There is a picnic pavilion that is available on a first-come, first-serve basis or can be reserved with a special use permit. To download a printable map click here (Requires Adobe Reader.)
