Bunny Flat Trailhead
Hiking area
ππ It offers two trails - Ski Bowl and Horse camp. Ski Bowl is higher in elevation and a longer hike. Beautiful, scenic views but it was hard to follow the trail because it was covered in snow still. If youβre feeling adventurous, Iβd recommend ski bowl but if not - Horse camp is your best option.

Mt. Shasta View Point
Tourist attraction
ππ Great view point for Mt. Shasta! There are few spots to view the big snow mountain and this is a very nice one. Just off the road, with plenty of parking, and facing the big mountain with gorgeous views and nice introduction. Highly recommend for a short stop and relax.

Pluto's Cave
Tourist attraction
ππ Caves are awesome! They were not too bad of a hike too. We explored all 3 of them (not sure if there are more). It was very dark but the beams of light midday were surreal. Would love to come back again soon.

Golden Dome Cave
Tourist attraction
ππ This was the first cave we visited in Lava Beds and it was a great introduction. Be aware that the ceiling in this cave gets low and requires you to stoop at times (watch your head as the ceiling is sharp in places). The golden color on the dome is really amazing when you get there.

Valentine Cave
Tourist attraction
ππ A smaller cave to hike in when visiting the Lava Beds in Tulelake, Ca. There are a few caves you can explore and this one was very neat. It is like a giant circle when you go inside and it is very easy to walk through. As with the other caves, be aware of bats!

ππ We had such a wonderful experience here. Pam was a pleasure to talk to and hear about the local conditions.
The rooms were great too with everything we needed to make our trip comfortable.
