Every autumn, migrating Chinook salmon make their way up the Rogue River to spawning grounds in tributaries throughout the Rogue and Illinois Valleys. Join KS Wild for an easy walk to learn about the salmon lifecycle and view wild salmon spawning in the beautiful Illinois River.
Chinook salmon return every fall to spawn in Bear Creek, the most urbanized tributary of the Rogue River and an easy place to see them is along the Bear Creek Greenway in Central Point around the Pine Street bridge. Join us for this magnificent experience!
Join us to see the iconic Rainie Falls on the Rogue River. We will have lunch on the rocks overlooking the falls and look for fall run Chinook salmon as they try and jump the falls on their way to seek spawning areas upstream.
The trail at McGregor Park along the Upper Rogue River is a quiet, leafy walk. We will stop at locations along the river to look for spawning Chinook salmon who start arriving here in early September. We will also drive a short distance to Big Butte Creek where there is typically a good view of spawning fish visible from the Crowfoot Road bridge.
