Trail at Colusa NWR

This 1-mile trail (0.5 mile out and back) begins near the Observation Deck located on O'Hair Road, off of Highway 20, just 2 miles west of the city of Colusa. The trail is a shaded walk through riparian habitat that provides glimpses into the adjacent wetlands. Near the end of the trail is a small boardwalk where visitors can overlook a wetland and catch views of waterfowl. This is a great spot to see wood ducks during the spring and summer.
