Whiskeytown National Recreation Area Ranger-Guided Kayak and Paddle Board Tours - All Month Long

And there's no better way to explore the lake then with Whiskeytown National Recreation Area's ranger-guided kayak and paddle board tours.

Hop aboard a patio boat for a free two-hour tour of the lake filled with fun facts about the park courtesy of your ranger guide. You might even get the opportunity to go swimming!

Walk For Wildlife - August 20

Moonlight Madness - August 27

Looking for a way to get some exercise, beat the heat, and see some of the best views in Redding? Look no further! Moonlight Madness is an annual 2 mile run/walk across Shasta Dam via the moonlight. Not only is it a fun race, but it's a great opportunity to get some views of Shasta Lake and Shasta Dam that you wouldn't get to see otherwise!

Redding Farmers Markets - All Month Long

There's no better start to a summers day then enjoying some fruit fresh off the vine, or indulging in a locally made fresh pastry. And luckily in Redding, you can find both at the same place! Going 45 years strong, the Redding Farmers Market takes place three times a week and is the place to go for locally grown produce and artisan goods.
