This byway is just seven miles north of Redding off of Interstate 5. It runs through the City of Shasta Lake which has all services. The byway begins at Shasta Dam Blvd. and Lake Blvd, and continues west to a vista point that affords the traveler a stunning view of the three Shastas, Shasta Dam, (tallest center overflow dam in the world), Shasta Lake, (California’s largest lake), and Mt. Shasta (14,179 feet).
Many activities are available after reaching Shasta Dam – guided tours of the Dam, boat ramp, and bank fishing is available at Fisherman’s Point. Camping, biking, and hiking trails are located on the west side of the dam.
