BURNEY FALLS

Burney Falls is found within McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park, in an area of the North California Shasta Cascade region. The water for this spectacular 129-foot waterfall, which rarely gets higher than 42 degrees, is provided from merging underground and above ground springs above the falls. It has an almost constant flow rate of 100 million gallons per day, no matter the time of the year.

President Theodore Roosevelt proclaimed Burney Falls to be “The Eight Wonder of the World”. After my amazing experience there, with my senses still peaking as I remember the cold water mist blowing firmly on to my face, I can’t help to definitely concur with his statement!
