Explore the wonder and beauty of a dramatic volcanic
landscape which stretches from Mount Lassen in California to Crater Lake in Oregon, making this America's
Volcano to Volcano highway. Along the way it winds through volcanic landscapes, craggy mountain reaches, high-desert wetlands and climbs three dormant volcanoes.
Once we reach Oregon, the Byway loops Crater Lake National Park. Enjoy cocktail hour at the historic Lodge, with a roaring fire at your back and unparalled views of the lake.
