Weaver Basin Trail System - website
Nearly 50 miles of some of the best single track in the nation. Great for Mountain Biking, level to medium hiking and horseback riding. Multi use trails (non motorized vehicles only please) and many great options. Buy a map to the Weaverville BasinTrail System at local retailers or click one of these links for on line version.

The Weaverville Basin Trail Project began in 1986 with the completion of the Weaverville Community Plan, a document adopted by the County of Trinity to guide the future development of Weaverville, a historic gold rush town nestled in the mountains of north-west California.

Trail Work Volunteers The Weaverville Basin Trail Committee was formed in 1988 to develop a plan to preserve Weaverville's trails. This committee is made up of representatives from various trail user groups, the U.S. Forest Service, BLM, Trinity County Historical Society, County of Trinity, Weaverville/Douglas City Parks and Recreation District, groups such as the Mountain Bike Club, the Running Club and Trinity Riders, as well as interested citizens at large.

Since its inception the project has grown in scope and size. The system will eventually circumnavigate Weaverville with over 50 miles of trail through biologically diverse terrain, offering many opportunities to interpret historic mining sites, riparian zones, wetlands, old growth forests and timber harvest sites.




Trinity Alps Wilderness Area
Over 500,000 acres of some of the most beatiful and rugged landscape in California.  Little known but highly
treasured by those who do, the Trinity Alps continue to serve backpackers, hunters (in season) and horse packing enthusiasts with granite escapments, jewel clear lakes and limited but coveted in stream trout fishing opportunities.   Click here for the 2009 trail condition report.
