Ball Ranch Grand Opening Celebration

December 13, 2024

The San Joaquin River Conservancy celebrated the opening of Ball Ranch and Ledger Island, which will be operated and maintained seven days a week by the San Joaquin River Parkway and Conservation Trust. Ball Ranch and Leder island offer many low impact recreational activities including hiking, biking, horseback riding, and wildlife viewing and appreciation.

Visitors can enjoy the 142 foot by 35 foot log egret maze, designed by Conservancy Staff Member Cheryl Moxley, and built with the help of staff, partners, and volunteers. The Egret is located adjacent to the main parking lot.

Opening Ball Ranch and Ledger Island to the community underscores our commitment to making the San Joaquin River Parkway accessible to all.
