Redding Area Insider TipsThe Inside Scoop From Seasoned I-5 Travelers

Time your crossing of the Pit River Bridge: This section near Shasta Lake (especially southbound) has some of the worst highway hypnosis on I-5. If you're tired, stop first. The curves and monotony catch people off guard.

Fill up BEFORE Redding: Gas prices spike significantly once you head north toward the Oregon border. Redding is your last chance for reasonable fuel prices for quite a while.

Watch your speed through the Shasta Lake area: California Highway Patrol heavily patrols the stretch between Redding and Mount Shasta, especially near the lake overlooks where people slow down to gawk. The speed limit drops unexpectedly in some zones.

Carry extra water in summer: Temperatures regularly hit 105-115°F from June-September. If you break down, you're in serious heat with limited shade. The AC works overtime here, so make sure your cooling system is solid before this stretch.
