Watch sandhill cranes rise over the Platte
Reserve a guided crane viewing experience with expert naturalists, timed to sunrise or sunset along the Platte River roost near Gibbon during peak migration.
Event details
For a few weeks each spring, the Platte River becomes a runway. Audubon’s Rowe Sanctuary offers guided crane experiences that place you in a viewing blind as tens of thousands of sandhill cranes lift off at sunrise or settle at dusk.
Each trip is led by trained guides and designed for families who want context as much as spectacle. Times align with sunrise or sunset, so plan for an early alarm or an unhurried evening and book ahead.
