Northern California is home to many spectacular waterfalls. While on a family vacation in the Mt Shasta area, we explored many beautiful falls and these are our top 3!
McCloud Falls is actually 3 waterfalls in one! You’ve got lower falls, and middle falls, where we spent a few hours splashing, swimming, and jumping into the frigid waters. After enjoying middle falls, we continued on the walking trail that connects all of the falls and checked out upper falls.
Next on our list is Faery Falls. A moderate hike through a beautiful forest brings you to this serene oasis. We mostly had the place to ourselves, minus a few harmless snakes in the water!
Number 3 on our list is Burney Falls. An easy paved trail takes you to its base where you can feel the power of the falls!
These are just a few of the many beautiful waterfalls near Mt Shasta. Guess we’ll have to go back another time to experience more of northern California’s beauty.
