Located along the scenic American River Parkway and operated by Sacramento County Regional Parks, Sailor Bar offers miles of trails winding through oak woodlands, meadows, and river bluffs. It remains a favorite destination for hikers, wildlife watchers, and families seeking a peaceful escape into both nature and history.
The Friends of Sailor Bar (FOSB) works in close partnership with Sacramento Regional Parks to preserve and enhance the park’s natural beauty, wildlife habitat, and historical resources.
To enhance visitor experience and accessibility, through the generous donations of our community, FOSB recently acquired twelve (12) new benches and seven (7) new tables which have been installed throughout the park. We have also launched monthly interpretive programs designed to educate and inspire park visitors.
A previous plan to allow motor vehicles deeper into Sailor Bar has been abandoned. Our collective focus has successfully shifted to education, habitat restoration, and ensuring Sailor Bar is utilized in a way that benefits both human visitors and the wildlife that call it home.
FOSB extends its sincere thanks to those who make our work possible:
• District 3 Supervisor Rich Desmond & Liz Bellas (Director of Regional Parks), for their continuous guidance and unwavering support of Sailor Bar.
• The Sacramento Regional Parks Maintenance Staff, whose daily hard work keeps the park clean, safe, and beautiful for everyone.
