The Turners Falls Fishway is open for spring migration season! 🐟

Each spring when the shadbush blooms, New Englanders have the opportunity to view an incredible natural phenomenon. American shad, sea lamprey and other anadromous (ah-nad-rah-mus) fish swim up the Connecticut River as they begin their annual spring migration. Anadromous fish are born in freshwater, mature in the ocean and return to freshwater to spawn. Driven by instinct, adult fish migrate to return to spawn in the rivers of their birth.

📅 Wednesday–Sunday, 9am–5pm through June 8
🎟️ Free Admission
📍 15 First Street, Turners Falls, MA
