Redding, California: The Jewel of Northern California

One of Sacramento Valley’s largest cities, Redding serves as a hub for exploring the region’s lakes, forests, and mountains. With Lake Shasta just 14 miles to the north, Lassen Volcanic National Park 48 miles to the east, and Whiskeytown National Recreation Area’s waterfalls to the west, the opportunities for outdoor adventure seem endless. There are 220 miles of trails throughout the Redding area, perfect for hiking and biking.

In the center of town, the impressive 700-foot-long Sundial Bridge at Turtle Bay attracts visitors as a marvel of modern engineering. Its 217-foot support tower points due north, making it a functioning sundial as well. The bridge joins both campuses of the 300-acre Turtle Bay Exploration Park, where visitors can explore the arboretum and gardens or just stroll by the Sacramento River’s shores. Or catch a show at the Cascade Theatre, which was restored to its original art-deco luster in 2004.

About Silverthorn Resort

Silverthorn Resort traces its history back to August 1, 1853, when settler George Silverthorn and his wife, Lucy, a native Wintu woman, established one of Northern California's first ferries across the Pit River. The Silverthorn's descendants stayed in the area to the present day, watching the river age and mature into a strapping, full-grown lake with more than 375 miles of shoreline dotted with picturesque docks and cabins. A marina outfitted with a pro shop and general store refills ships and pantries with needed supplies, and a pizza pub refuels visitors with the daily recommended allowance of pizza, live music, and cold beer.

Houseboats glide across Shasta Lake's calm waters, where vacationing anglers can fish for trout, salmon, and bass. The 40,000-acre lake allows plenty of room for wakeboarding, tubing, and other watersports. Around the lake, a network of trails wends hikers and cyclists across the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, where Mount Shasta stands about 50 miles north of the lake.
