WATERSPORTS
Redding's hundreds of miles of shoreline are calling to you! Water recreation is what we do best around here, thanks to our sunny summers. Jet skis are great for exploring Shasta Lake, and ski boats keep it lively when you add tubes, skis, and wakeboards. For the really adventerous, try a hydrofoil or Jetovator for an extreme lake experience!

Visitors to the rolling, brushy hills near Shasta Lake will find off-highway vehicle (OHV) riding challenges for all abilities. The Chappie-Shasta OHV Area has more than 250 miles of roads and trails for motorcyclists, all-terrain vehicle drivers and four-wheelers. For more information, go to VisitReddingcom/Off-Highwav-Vehicles
McCloud Falls is home to three different water falls, all connected by trail. Lower McCloud Falls is popular with swimmers, with a large pool at its base. Middle McCloud falls is the largest of the three, and one of the widest waterfalls in Calfornia at 120 feet Upper McCloud falls features an ADA accessable overlook.
Potem Falls runs into Shasta Lake and is acces sible by trail up the Pit River Arm of Shasta Lake. This waterfall lies in a deep canyon and reaches 45 feet from its base. Enjoy swimming in the pool at the base during the summer months, and don't forget to check out the rope swing!
