Stone Lakes National Wildlife Refuge, National wildlife refuge in Sacramento County, United States
Stone Lakes National Wildlife Refuge encompasses 17,641 acres of wetlands, grasslands, and freshwater lakes within the Sacramento-San Joaquin delta system.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service established this protected area in 1994 to preserve Central Valley habitats from expanding urban development.
The refuge functions as an educational center where local volunteers guide visitors through grasslands and waterways during weekend nature programs.
Visitors can access Blue Heron Trails daily and participate in seasonal activities including guided walks, paddle tours, and waterfowl hunting programs.
This urban wildlife sanctuary hosts over 200 bird species and contains some of the last remaining natural freshwater lakes in California's Central Valley.
