Downtown Sacramento in the distance on the left, with Old Sacramento on the banks of the Sacramento River, the iconic Tower Bridge and West Sacramento’s Riverwalk on the right. Richard Rich, City of Sacramento Railyards and Riverfront Project Manager, recently shared plans to upgrade the riverfront beginning in Old Sacramento, referring to the rivers as vital “cultural assets” for our region. The City of West Sacramento has also been investing heavily in its riverfront activation.

The Sacramento region benefits greatly from the abundant beauty and recreational opportunities offered by our two rivers. Shown here is the American River near the confluence with the Sacramento River at Discovery Park.

On the border of Sacramento State standing on the Guy West Bridge you can see great views of the American River. Seen here is a lone fisherman on a summer evening scouting for a catch.

The Capital Region has two rivers flowing through it, the Sacramento River and the American River, which are integral to the region’s unique quality of life.
