Feather River Hatchery raises Chinook salmon and steelhead along the Feather River, just below Lake Oroville. An underwater viewing window displays migrating salmon or steelhead during the approximate dates of mid-September through June.
Visitors will enjoy their time at Feather River Hatchery any time of year, and be sure not to miss Oroville's annual Salmon Festival in September. Located on the north side of Oroville off Hwy 70, the aquatic center is located in a beautiful park setting on the edge of a small lake. In addition to swimming and picnicking, they offer sailing lessons, kayaking day trips, SUP yoga (stand-up paddleboard yoga), summer rowing camps, and much more. Dogs are welcome!
