This is one of my favorite adventures to date, waterfalls are magical and on this adventure I got to see three amazing ones. What’s great is that this trail will allow you to see 13 different waterfalls within only a few days. I didn’t have the time to hit all 13 of them, but I will be back and I plan on seeing them all!
Here is the link:
I saw Middle McCloud falls, Burney Falls, and Potem Falls. They were all beautiful and some of the most amazing waterfalls I’ve ever seen. If you’re traveling in an RV, truck camper or off road home, this whole trip is easily doable in one weekend and makes for a great trip with friends or by yourself. You don’t need anything special to access them and there’s plenty of camping spots along the way. While you’re in the area there’s tons of hiking and rock climbing/bouldering spots as well. I hiked here and the views at the top are incredible, low traffic and some great up-hill cardio:

Shasta lake is in this area as well so if you have a boat or are interesting in boating – this is the spot. The closest major town is Redding so if you’re not traveling by RV/van/truck camper, it’s close enough to stay in the city and then venture out during the day.
