Redding's Sacramento River Trail

Mountains to Sea Trail: This 22-mile urban nature reserve and bikeway starts in Weir Canyon and travels through six jurisdictions, enabling trail users to experience the diversity of the 50,000-acre Irvine Ranch Land Reserve (designated 2006).

Sacramento River Trail and Sacramento Rail Trail Based on a partnership between the City of Redding, Bureau of Reclamation, Bureau of Land Management, and Shasta County, these trails are an example of what is possible through a joint effort between various agencies and local groups. Once completed, the river trail system will provide 20 miles of public access to the Sacramento River between Shasta Dam and downtown Redding. This scenic trail system allows for a number of recreational activities including biking, hiking, boating, and horseback riding (designated 2002).

The Tahoe Rim Trail NRT designation includes 96 miles of the 165-mile trail which runs along the ridges and mountain tops that encircle Lake Tahoe. The trail winds through two states (California and Nevada), six counties, three national forests, and state park land (designated 2003). See photos of the Tahoe Rim Trail...
