Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge Complex, National wildlife refuge complex in Glenn County, United States.

The Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge Complex spans 70,000 acres of wetlands, grasslands, and riparian habitats across northern California's Sacramento Valley.

The refuge complex, established in 1937, features structures built by 200 Civilian Conservation Corps workers who created residences, water systems, and maintenance facilities.

The complex maintains multiple visitor facilities, including a discovery room, wildlife exhibits, and educational programs that highlight the region's natural heritage.

Visitors can explore the refuge through a six-mile auto tour route with three viewing areas and two walking trails open from Thursday through Sunday.

The wetlands support over 500,000 ducks and 250,000 geese during winter migration, making it a primary stop on the Pacific Flyway.
