While they do not offer tours, one can enter the buildings if they are open and enjoy seeing the fish. If there is a officer there, they will happily explain the process they have.
The reason they are indoors is due to the harsh climate that occurs during part of the year in this region.

Jordan River National Fish Hatchery is a four season destination with a variety of things to see and do throughout the year. The hatchery produces more than 3 million fish annually and visitors can see fish from the egg stage to adult. During warm weather months the hatchery is a great place to spend a few hours observing millions of fingerling trout, take time for a picnic or hike the miles of trails on and around the facility. Fall and winter months are picturesque in the Jordan River valley and are a great time for outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy our area.
