Lake McCloud Kayaking
  

Captivating scenery spreads out around you while you paddle every turn and bend. Lake McCloud offers a wealth of unforgettable scenic splendors. It is located in Northern California,north of Redding. Lake McCloud is surrounded by majestic mountains, tall evergreen trees, and is an ideal destination for all skill levels of paddlers. The narrow distance between the shorelines allows you to cross over to opposite side if you become too tired to paddle or if the wind picks up.

Whether you are planning to go kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, camping, fishing, hiking, or boating, the choices for recreation are almost unlimited at Lake McCloud. During the late spring, summer and early fall, paddling and boating are the most popular attraction in this area, offering spectacular scenery while on the water.

Hikers have many options in McCloud and the surrounding region, including the Squaw Valley Creek Trail, McCloud River Falls Trail, and the easy access to the Pacific Crest Trail.

Developed campgrounds and day use facilities are located nearby along the McCloud River. Its out-of-the-way location reduces the crowds.
