The Sacramento River runs through Redding, a stretch of river providing some of the best fishing in the Western United States.

Majestic Mt. Shasta is just about one hour north, known for its natural beauty and wintertime sports such as downhill and cross country skiing and snowboarding. Within one hour to the east is Lassen Volcanic National Park and to the west are the Trinity Alps, recreation areas popular for their geologic wonders, camping, and backpacking.

With its unsurpassed natural beauty, recreational opportunities, and quality of life, Redding provides small-town atmosphere with the amenities of a large city.
