The 2,500-acre preserve is on the Colorado Indian Tribes Reservation and is a top spot in the area for bird-watching and hiking. There are several campgrounds, parks, and recreation areas along the Colorado River. Some 350 species of migratory and native birds live around the region or visit on their annual migrations. The best bird-watching is along the shoreline of the backwater area branching off the Colorado River. The 3-mi hiking trail has exercise stations along the way, and a trail extension will lead you to the tribal historical museum and gift shop. From AZ 95 in Parker, which is at the southern end of Lake Havasu, head west on Mohave Road for about 2 mi. When you reach the parker indian rodeo association sign, continue ½ mi farther and turn left at the tribal preserve sign at Rodeo Drive.
