Parks
The local community parks such as Riveria East Park generally feature play areas for young children, tennis courts, basketball hoops, paths and large field for soccer or running about.

There are access points to a state park with boat launch all along the river. To access the launch, cross over a mostly paved running and bicycle path. Hikers should note there are plenty of man made trails into the unpaved, scenic area around.

State river access points like Gristmill Recreation Area American River Parkway often feature nature trails and interesting flora and fauna.

Recreational
Besides hikes, running bicycling and kayaking along the river, this location is close to RPM Racing and The Sacramento West Wind Drive-In 6 which are scheduled to evolve over the next few years. Light Rail is easily accessible from the Butterfield exit and can help gain access to other Sacramento neighborhoods or travel up to Folsom and the outlet malls.
