📍McCloud Falls, California (Middle Falls, Lower Falls and Upper Falls) in Shasta-Trinity National Forest.
⛺️From Fowlers Campground (where you can walk to all 3 waterfalls right from the campground). It’s $15 per night to camp there and there are 8 first come, first serve sites (the rest are reservable). One of my all-time favorite campsites to-date!
🥾 It’s about 3.9 miles (RT) to hike to all 3 waterfalls and rated ‘easy’. Middle McCloud Falls was absolutely my favorite and only about a 0.8 mile jaunt from our campsite!!
💦 Swimming in its icy, clear blue waters was a highlight from this past month! Utterly.. the most dreamy swimming hole!!
🗺️ Some other amazing places to explore in the area (nearby):
•Burney Falls
•Lassen Volcanic National Park
•Mt. Shasta
•Castle Crags State Park
•The Stand By Me bridge
+ so much more!
🩵 Picture it: spending your mornings under the forest canopy while reading your favorite book, gently swaying in your hammock. Then, walking through the colorful paths to swim in these magical falls all afternoon. And tell me….
❓Would you like to have these waterfalls as your ‘backyard’ for a bit and camp here??
