Redding is the largest city in far Northern California and the hub for a vast rural region stretching to the Oregon border. As the seat of Shasta County, it serves as the area’s center for health care, retail, government and services. The Sacramento River runs through town beneath Santiago Calatrava’s glass-decked Sundial Bridge, and Shasta Dam, a few miles north, holds back the largest reservoir in California. Outdoor recreation and tourism play a growing role in the local economy.
The drive from Sacramento takes about two and a half hours, and from the Bay Area closer to four, so private flying shortens the trip for business visitors, anglers and families with houseboats on the lake. The city’s airport sits southeast of town and puts you within easy reach of the water. From Redding, Lassen Volcanic National Park, Mount Shasta and Whiskeytown are all about an hour away or less, and the lower Sacramento River below Keswick Dam is one of the West’s celebrated trout fisheries.

Things to do in Redding
When to go. Spring brings full waterfalls, wildflowers and good fishing on the Sacramento River. Summer is houseboat season on Shasta Lake, though temperatures in town often climb above 100°F. The main road through Lassen Volcanic National Park usually opens fully by early summer and closes with winter snow. Fall brings mild weather, salmon runs and autumn color, and winters are mild in town, with snow on the surrounding peaks.
