Expedition Island, located in the center of Green River, is a National Historical Site. The site is the recognized starting point for two expeditions down the Green and Colorado Rivers led by major John WesleyPowell in 1869 and 1871. Today it provides opportunities for an enjoyable stroll that encircles the island. If it's an evening walk you're looking for, the paved pathway is also lighted for your safety and convenience. Easy parking access to the river can be gained next door at Splash Park. The island is comfortably shaded and features plenty of picnic tables and picnic shelters. Playground equipment, restrooms, as well as access to the Green Belt Nature Walk can also be discovered. The Island has been the home for events such as River Festival, Art On the Green, and for many years now, Flaming Gorge Days.
