Lassen Volcanic National Park's 106,372 acres provide a wealth of fun activities that are as varied as the seasons of the park. 

• There are over 150 miles of hiking trails within the park which range in difficulty from a strenuous 5 mile round-trip hike up Lassen Peak to a gentle 1.5 mile stroll around Manzanita Lake. 
  
  
• The Main Park Road provides incredible views of the Cascades and High Sierras, as well as access to mountain lakes and active hydrothermal areas. 
  
  
• There are eight campgrounds within Lassen Volcanic National Park, and a large part of Lassen's wilderness is available for wilderness camping with a free permit.

When planning which activities you want to enjoy while visiting the park, please keep in mind that access to specific trails, or even the park itself, is dependent on the weather and snow conditions.  In heavy snow years the park road may open as late as July 20th, but could open as early as May 15th on light snow years.  Click here to visit the road opening status webpage for up-to-date information.  For the same reasons, access to many trails may be restricted or limited to those with snowshoes.  The Bumpass Hell trail usually does not open until early to mid-July.  Call the park headquarters information desk at 530-595-4444 or click here to view the current status of trails throughout the park.
