Lake Shasta is located in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest – the largest national forest in California with a diverse landscape ranging from 1,000 to 14,162 feet. The 2.1 million acre forest encompasses five wilderness areas, hundreds of mountain lakes and 6,278 miles of streams and rivers. The employees of the “Shasta-T” manage a healthy forest by enhancing wildlife habitat, maintaining clean water, producing timber products and safeguarding communities at risk from wildfires. Pivotal in the economical, tourism and recreational aspects of Northern California, the Shasta-Trinity National Forest is a land of breathtaking beauty and a place for everyone to enjoy the great outdoors.

With a capacity of 4,552,000 acre·ft at full pool, Lake Shasta has an elevation of 1,067 feet, and a surface area of 30,000 acres, making it the state’s largest reservoir, and its third largest body of water after Lake Tahoe and the Salton Sea.  We are 26 min (23.1 mi) via I-5 N of Redding, with the town of Lakehead on its northern shores.
