Directions:

From I5 in Redding take the Lake Blvd exit heading west. Drive about 5 miles and take a left on Quartz Hill road. About 2 miles down Quartz Hill the trailhead for Hornbeck Trail will be on your right.

The Trail:

Pretty simple one here. The trail is clearly marked at all intersections. Hornbeck is about 4 miles long taking you to the Walker Mine road trail head. A common thing to do once at the end of Hornbeck is to take a right on the pavement up to the start of the Lower Sacramento Ditch Trail, which loops you back towards the beginning of Hornbeck.
