Very nice fish hatchery to visit for free. You can buy fish food there or bring you own. Lots of trail in the area along with wildlife.
Great place along the Animas River. Very tranquil with a quiet low lying riverbed. The night was extremely cold as we aren't expecting the chill thAt came around 330 AM. Prepare for the cold if you have that option. FIND IT AND GO!!!
Only a short walk from downtown on the beautiful river trail of Durango is this wonderful place of family fun, learning and ty he best part it's free. They offer a live fish hatchery where for 25 cents you can feed the fish yourself. Its as always fun to see the fish go food crazy weather you have food in had or not. They also offer a wonderful museum. It's open Monday thru Saturday from 10 am to 5pm and Sunday from 11 to 3pm. Stop in for a short 15 min film and then see and learn about the wildlife of the area. They also offer activities for the young children. This should be a definite stop when visiting Durango Colorado.
Good place to learn it about local species of animals and fish. You get to feel different animals skins. You can feed the trout in the Fishery area. And learn about how they raise and release the trout.
We really enjoy stopping by to see the fish at our local Fish and Wildlife (& Hatchery) while on our daily walks.
Such an adorable weird little outing-- the Hatchery and Fishery! They have all the fish out in these troughs and you can feed them out of 25 cent gumball style machines! Right next to Animas Brewery so you can grab a beer in the sun afterwards :)
