Bonneville Lock & Dam
The Lock and Dam is open year round, every day from 9am to 5pm.  View the fish ladder, navigational locks and the giant generator.  Fascinating for all ages!  Special tours can be arranged - call (541) 374-8820.  Take exit 40 off I-84.

Bonneville Fish Hatchery
Tour the Fish Hatchery and Dam for free -- year round.  At the Hatchery, view giant Sturgeon and beautiful trout in the ponds year-round.  Spawning salmon can be viewed during the fall.

The Dalles & John Day Dams
Access to The Dalles and John Day Dams have been limited because of Homeland Security directives. We are in the process of better securing our main powerhouses and other necessary facilities so that we can reopen parts of our project to the public for viewing and use.
