About Sycamore Island:

The San Joaquin River Parkway & Conservation Trust started operating Sycamore Island in 2013 under a 5-year agreement with the San Joaquin River Conservancy.   Sycamore Island is still a great place to visit!  Sycamore island has three access points to the river for canoeing and kayaking, and has several miles of dirt roads that provide an excellent surface for trail running or walking.  There are three covered picnic shelters on the 350-acre property, and a bait shop that sells snacks and beverages.
