Lassen Volcanic National Park is home to steaming fumaroles, meadows freckled with wildflowers, clear mountain lakes, and numerous volcanoes. Jagged peaks tell the story of its eruptive past while hot water continues to shape the land.
The park highway remains closed to through traffic. Snow clearing continues with delays from spring snow storms and equipment repair.
Walk, run, or bike sections of the highway cleared of snow, but not yet open to vehicles. Leashed pets welcome!
