| The Upper Sacramento River is between the Siskiyou and Shasta reservoirs. This rafting trip is excellent and the scenery is impressive, though solitude is minimal because I-5 and the southern pacific railroad tracks run along side much of the way. The advantage is that there are numerous alternate river access points along the Upper Sacramento river, and this stretch has great views of Mt Shasta, though the nearly continuous class III and IV rapids allow for little time for gazing. Located only a few hours north of the Bay Area, the Upper Sacramento River rafting trip is loaded with non-stop whitewater. Flowing from snowcapped Mount Shasta and the rugged Trinity Mountains, the headwaters of California's largest river offers a feeling of remote wilderness as it winds its way through a narrow mountain canyon. Exciting for novice and experienced rafters alike, this is also one of the best whitewater river trips in California for inflatable kayakers -- fast and fun. Between rapids, drifting through tranquil pools, we have time to enjoy the spring wildflowers, sidestream waterfalls, and spectacular views of Mount Shasta. The season for the Upper Sacramento River rafting trip is April through June |
