Places to Visit

Nature and History combine to make some of the best places to visit in our area.

Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway
The southern end of the Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway begins at Lake Almanor, just miles from the active geothermal features at Lassen Volcanic National Park. The northern end of the byway is capped by Crater Lake National Park in Oregon.  In between are 500 miles of adventure, exploration and communion with nature. For more information go to VolcanicLegacyByway.org.

Lake Almanor Recreation Trail – West Shore
The Lake Almanor Recreation Trail runs 9.5 miles along the southwest shore of Lake Almanor. It offers scenic views of the lake and mountains, including Lassen Peak and runs in and out along beautiful meadows, forest and shoreline. The trail is multi-use inviting walkers, joggers and biking. During winter the trail is ideal for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. From Chester go 2 miles southwest on State Route 36 and turn south on SR 89. There are several access points to the trail along the highway, the Almanor boat ramp parking lot (near the Almanor North campground) and 4 other parking areas along Almanor West Drive near the community of Prattville.

Collins Pine Nature Trail – Chester
Collins Pine also has a Nature Trail that starts at the West end of Chester Park.  It makes two loops through about fifty acres of second growth woodland with mixed evergreen and deciduous trees, grassy flood plain, channels and beaver ponds. The far end of the trail is six tenths of a mile from the park. There are four benches at places along the trail, and twelve numbered points at sites of special interest. A Points of Interest guide is available at the Collins Pine Museum.
