About River Rise Preserve State Park
A NOTE FROM THE MANAGER
V. Morgan Tyrone
Like its adjacent neighbor, O'Leno State Park, River Rise Preserve State Park is cool enough now in the mornings and late afternoons to enjoy the extensive trail system comfortably. Please remember to have a cell phone, trail map, and water while hiking, biking, or horseback riding on the trails for your safety and enjoyment. With the multiuse trails being used by hikers, bikers and equestrians please remember to share and use trail etiquette. Located on the Santa Fe River, River Rise Preserve State Park offers primitive equestrian camping, fishing, and 34 miles of multi-use trails through 18 different natural communities. Be aware that we are periodically burning certain areas within the park for fuel reduction and restoration purposes. So please ask the Ranger Station if and where the staff may be burning to avoid our use of trails as fire breaks during the burn.
Ticks are prevalent at River Rise because of our healthy deer population. Their activity is evident until freezing weather arrives. Please protect yourself, family, and friends by using repellent of a Deet or Permethrin origin.
