Love the trail. Perfect incline to flat ratio for jogging. The Fire a while back did a number to it but it is beautiful.

Even though this area recently burned in the devastating Carr fire, the trail has been reopened and offers a very pleasant hike. On this December day, the dogs found lots of water to play in, we discovered new sites with the views being opened up due to the fire. The Shasta mine site remains in tact and additional openings are visible now that the brush is gone. I would consider this trail moderate intensity due to the length of the trail and a few inclines. This trail intersects with other trails so it is easy to add miles. Its a multi-use trail, so expect to share with hikers, mountain bikers and equestrians.Enjoy!

Fun 3.5 mile trail. The mine may not be too much to look at now, but the small streams along the way are. As everywhere else in the county, watch for poison oak.

Beautiful Even after Car fire. Highly recommend!!

Nice trail little over 3 miles

One of the few trails open after the Carr fire not the same as it used to be but still a decent trail to hike.

Surprisingly delightful, but lots of burnt trees

Fun trail. Adventure around and you will find some old cans from when the mine was still open.

A great trip with the family the hile was fun and it was not that difficult.

Great trail...bring water

Beautiful trail, the wildflowers really spring up around the creeks this time of year.

Tourists are completely unaware that there stuff will be stolen by bridge trolls here. Great for locals, death trap for tourists.

Fun trail in fall and spring. They REALLY need to work on signage for the trails. Have ran into lots of people over the years lost due to bad trail markers.

Great trail, but can be deceptive when it comes to distance. A couple runners passed us on the way out. When we were almost 2/3 through, we ran into them heading the opposite direction. They said they had heard the trail was a loop around 3 miles long but after running for over 30 minutes it didnt seem to be heading in the right direction. We pressed on anyway and reached the end of the loop in about a mile. It helps to familiarize yourself with the elevation profile of the hike in advance so you know what you are up against. The NPS has great PDFs of all the Whiskeytown trails and most have the elevation profile listed.

Missed the left turn up the drainage ditch and ran into two other groups who did the same. There was a sign hidden in the bushes. Also, there is no building where the mine is. Dont let the picture fool you.

Super fun. Great to take the whole family!

We Louie this trail.. always on horseback.

So fun!

Sucked. Nothing to look at or enjoy
