With mountains all around, miles of hiking and biking trails, a river running through it, and national parks nearby, Redding is an outdoor paradise for young and old alike. Cradled by Mount Shasta and Mount Lassen, Redding has 300+ sunny days per year. It's a great place to escape the chill of spring and the gray days of winter, too!

TIME magazine called Redding the Unofficial Capital of Kayaking for its "weird obsession" with all things paddling. With temperate weather, nearby lakes, and that river in the middle of town, it would be "weird" to not get out and enjoy it all!

If outdoor adventures were foods, Redding would be the buffet at the Caesar’s Palace. (There are buffets and casinos, too.) The hiking, paddling, cycling, fishing, climbing, boating, geocaching, and winter sports all draw enthusiasts to Redding. There are even glaciers and caves! And with nearly 50 waterfalls in the area, hiking is a popular activity within the 11 state and national parks in the region.

Redding is also home to the famous Sundial Bridge, world-class fishing, and 200 miles of hiking and biking trails for all abilities. Head out on a day-trip to see the bubbling mud pots and boiling lakes in Lassen Volcanic National Park, or get refreshed by the waterfall at McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park. This 129-foot gusher is considered one of the most beautiful in the state.

Find out what fun events are happening, like the Redding Marathon, Kool April Nites, the Redding Rodeo, and the Salmon Festival (Redding is the only West Coast city listed by Forbes as a top-ten fishing destination in North America). Redding is a perfect vacation destination for "Any Adventure, Any Day!"
