At present it is open to the public for walking, fishing and boating but has no visitor services.[1] The park encompassessloughs,wet meadows, and an island between theSacramento andMokelumne Rivers. It is located near the historicChinese American town ofLocke, 28 miles (45 km) equidistant fromSacramento andStockton.[2] The 472-acre (191 ha) property was established in 1985.[3]

Delta Meadows preserves ariver delta much as it appeared 150 years ago, crowded with stands ofoak,tule,walnut,willow, andcottonwood. Abundant wildlife includesblack-tailed deer,beavers,river otters,muskrats, and wetland birds such asgreat blue herons,wood ducks,mallards,belted kingfishers, andcormorants.[4]

However one can drive onto Railroad Slough Levee from the River Road betweenWalnut Grove and Locke, via a small gravel road just north-east of the cross channel.[4] Previously adocent program through the Delta Natural History Association provided canoe guides in the spring and fall, reserved throughBrannan Island State Recreation Area.[2]
