Sutter's Fort State Historic Park is a California state park located in the heart of Sacramento, California. The park is named after the famous 19th-century settler John Sutter, whose fort is the centerpiece of the park. The park is home to the original fort, built in 1839, as well as a replica of the fort built in the 1960s. The park also includes a visitor center, museum, and a number of other educational and interactive programs.

The fort itself was the first non-indigenous settlement in the Sacramento Valley, and it served as a hub of activity in the region. Many of the original fort buildings are still standing today, including the blacksmith shop, adobe walls, and the original powder magazine. Visitors to the park can explore the fort and learn about its history, as well as enjoy a variety of activities, such as living history programs, educational programs, and special events.

The park also features a number of trails, which are great for walking, running, or biking. The trails wind through the park, providing spectacular views of the Sacramento River, downtown Sacramento, and the surrounding hills. Visitors can also explore the nearby Native American villages, where they can learn about the history and culture of the area’s original inhabitants.
