Horsetown-Clear Creek Preserve

This morning was pleasant hiking along the creek and small loop trails, took this photo on the small loop trail. Sorry not a good photo but I hope you go out and look for your self.

Great place to picnic and swim. Be mindful invasive mudsnails are there. Nice for small boats and swimming.

The trails are getting better please remember pack it in pack it out

Nice location, BIG loop to walk, but there are no trash cans at any of these trailheads. People park to eat their lunch, then just throw their stuff out the window and I had to carry my bag of dog poo. (I suppose most people just let them go anywhere, but I would think that would attract wildlife.)

Great spring day for a hike out of Horsetown, up onto the Cloverdale Road trails. BLM has done some cleaning and piling up of down and dead wood debris. So, with the nice temperature and green grasses with white, snowy mountains as a backdrop, the hiking is great!

Great day learning about waterbugs from a interesting and knowledgeable professor at shasta college !

Awesome swimming hole. Room to park and good water access. -Please pick up after yourselfs!

Amazing place to swim an relax, watch for snakes and other things. Fire danger is high from May until about October. If you pack it in please pack it out, it's always better to leave the place cleaner then it was. Water is VERY cold.

We love this place. It's a great place for a walk. Make sure to go early in the morning during the summer because it gets super hot. One downside is there has been a lot of trash lately so we take a trash bag and pick things up as we go along.

A really nice place to relax, except the the gnarly amount of mosquitos.

Love this place! Water is cold, rocks to jump from, water I'd deep enough (in some places) to swim yet shallow enough for kids to play safely. I try to make it here every year!

Really enjoyable trail network for hikers, cyclists and questionable horse-liking people.

My family loves coming here. Jumping off cliff rocks an the river swing make this place a fun hidaway

Beautiful trails along the creek. Dogs are allowed on leash and the trails are well maintained.

Always love it, go hiking, swimming, just being there in nature. A major great place all of the trail heads are.

One of the many spots along Clear Creek to stop and see. Quiet and clean. Enjoy Gods beauty while you're at it.

Great place to cool down and pick blackberry... from the Creek... mostly just waist high...

One of my favorite places to go relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Rock formations are amazing. Mosquitoes are not.

I love to swim here water is a bit cold but lots of fun and water is clear :-)
