Upper Sacramento Ditch Trail

Directions:

If riding the trail northbound take I5 in Redding to the Pine Grove exit. Go west until you hit Lake Boulevard. Head across the street and continue straight where it becomes Walker Mine road. Drive a couple more miles down this windy road and it dead ends at the trail head. You can also start this trail from the Shasta Dam parking lot if you want to head southbound.

The Trail:

This trail is part of the network of Sacramento River Trails. It's an easy trail with no major intersections or turns to look for. It's relatively flat, but has some nice views of Keswick Reservoir and the mountain ranges in this area. A great place to get an easy 9 miles in or 18 if you head out and back.
