Directions to the Grebe Festival at the Olsen Barn: The 2023 Grebe Festival will occur at the Feather River Land Trust's Olsen Barn property. Visit their link for maps and directions.
Checking in for all tours will occur at the Olsen Barn. Kayak tour attendees will caravan to the put-in location prior to the event. Due to the unpredictable nature of grebe nesting and water levels, the location at which kayak tours will put in will be determined closer to the date of the event.
