Burney Falls

McArthur-Burney Falls is the perfect destination to escape the heat of the valley, enjoy tremendous views, and to feel surrounded by nature. We will start our day with the Falls Loop Trail and after a break, we will venture north on the Rim Trail to see the sights on our way to Lake Britton. Please bring a lunch. We will have opportunities to see returning species like Black Swifts, Chestnut backed Chickadee, Pileated Woodpecker, Osprey, and Bald Eagle and many Warblers, Swallows, Flycatcher. Park’s Day-Use Fee is $10 per Vehicle.
We recommend for those from central to west Redding, to consider meeting up at Kutras Lake and depart @ 7:30 am and carpool up to Burney. I will be driving up from Red Bluff and cutting off at Anderson to take the Millville/Oak Run route and I am available to pick 1-2 people in the Anderson area at 7:00am. We all should meet up at Safeway in Burney by 8:40 before entering the park.
Please contact Dan Bye, by text/cell 530 228 9373 or email danbye56@gmail.com for more information.

This park in northeastern Shasta County is famous for its falls and nesting Black Swifts. The swifts will have migrated but the falls, riparian zone along Dry Burney Creek and Lake Britton should provide a wide variety of birds. Bring a lunch, water, and sturdy shoes. We will rendezvous in the parking lot on the South side of the Redding Civic Auditorium. Eastern Shasta County folks can meet us at the Safeway parking lot in Burney at 8:30 am. We should return to Redding in late afternoon.
