Shasta Cascade Region, CA Land for Sale

The Shasta Cascade region of California may be the most peaceful area of California. Located in the northeastern and north-central sections of the state, this region boarders Oregon and Nevada, including the far northern parts of the Central Valley and the Sierra Nevada mountain range. The area is centered on Mount Shasta in the California Cascade Range which is near the Trinity Alps. Mount Shasta is a quiet but scientifically active volcano; nearby Lassen Peak has been an active volcano as recently as the 20th century.

The Shasta Cascade Region is an outdoor-lover's paradise, with safe-to-explore volcanoes, hushed forests, and trout-filled rivers. This is the place for blue-ribbon fishing, houseboats anchored in cool lakes, countless campgrounds, and inviting trails for hiking and mountain biking. There are seven national forests in the area: Klamath National Forest, Lassen National Forest, Mendocino National Forest, Modoc National Forest, Plumas National Forest and Shasta-Trinity National Forest, as well as the Lava Beds National Monument.

The area is also well known for its lakes, rivers, and waterfalls, including Shasta Lake, Trinity Lake, Lake Almanor, Eagle Lake, and Lake Siskiyou, the Sacramento River, McCloud River, Feather River, Trinity River, and Pit River, as well as Mossbrae Falls, the McCloud River Falls, and Burney Falls.
