Bellefonte Hatchery access provides entry to the legendary Fisherman's Paradise section of Spring Creek, a 1. 3-mile catch-and-release fly-fishing only area with ample parking, restrooms, and picnic facilities.

The Spring Creek Canyon Trail extends approximately 4 miles upstream from the hatchery to Benner Springs Hatchery, offering scenic hiking and fishing access along the creek.

Note that some water near the hatchery is under "No wade" restrictions, so check signage before entering.
