Northeast California includes the northern section of Interstate 5, extending as far south as Redding and as far north and east as the Oregon and Nevada borders. Visitors to this sparsely populated region will marvel at the density of the vegetation and wildlife at the Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Park Area and stand in awe of the snowcapped grandeur of the Cascade Mountains. Mount Shasta towers 14,162 ft (4,317 m) above the town of Mount Shasta and tempts 15,000 new and experienced climbers to ascend to the summit each year. Northeast California is a four-season playground and tourists will find countless opportunities for fishing, hunting, rafting, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, golfing and horseback riding. Many area museums detail local history and culture, including the Fort Crook Museum. Redding is the largest city in the area, but Yreka, Weed and Mount Shasta provide plenty of choices for accommodations, activities and special events.
