About Hat Creek

Hat Creek is a tiny, peaceful mountain community tucked into eastern Shasta County, about 75 miles east of Redding. Known for world-class trout fishing and stunning volcanic scenery, it sits right on the doorstep of Lassen Volcanic National Park and McArthur-Burney Falls. Between quiet forest roads, crystal-clear waters, and the iconic Allen Telescope Array scanning the skies, it offers an exceptionally tranquil slice of Northern California living.
