Adventure like a local in LASSEN COUNTY!
Vacation opportunities in Lassen County are rich and varied. We put together some of our local favorites for one day which will leave you with other outdoor recreation options to explore on day two.
1 Start your day off by stocking up on some locally grown and locally made items at the Lassen County Farmers Market, held from June to September, each Saturday 8am to noon, located on Pancera Plaza in historic Uptown Susanville. Then off to one of the many lakes for boating, kayaking, paddling, or relaxation soaking up the sun.
2 If it is too chilly for water fun, visit the Lassen Historical Museum and Roop’s Fort, showcasing artifacts and lumbering equipment providing a glimpse into Susanville’s last 150 years of history.
3 Then off to the trails! At Susanville Ranch Park you will find 1,100 acres of multi-use land with 29 miles of trails to explore. The 14 miles at the north part of the trail are ideal for the intermediate and experienced hikers and mountain bikers.
4 After the trails, your itinerary takes a different route depending upon the month you visit. In June, you can join us at the Annual Main Cruise Classic Car Show, held the last Saturday of the month, or the end of June for three days at the Annual Susanville Bluegrass Festival. The third week in July is the Lassen County Fair, yet a trip in October can end your day at the Rails to Trails Festival. Anytime in between those months on a Saturday you can join us at the Diamond Mountain Speedway for our derby car racing. But if your taste is a little less “racy” the Susanville Symphony holds concerts throughout the year and the Susanville Best of Broadway performs each March. We look forward to you joining us for some local Lassen County fun!
