Tehama County
Shasta Cascade Region

Tehama County lays approximately midway between Sacramento and the Oregon border. The County Seat, Red Bluff, is located on Interstate 5 and the Sacramento River approximately 135 road miles north of Sacramento. The west and east boundaries of the county are the ridge lines of the Pacific Coast Range and the Cascade-Sierra Nevada Ranges respectively.

Tehama County has an area of approximately 3,000 square miles, and is overwhelmingly "open space" with significant development being limited to the central region of the Sacramento Valley floor. The climate in Red Bluff is typical of that found in the central valley, with summers being very warm and dry with mild, somewhat wet winters. The county's economy is based on agriculture, including ranching and timber and lumber production.

Local recreational opportunities are outstanding with nearby camping, fishing, hunting, snow skiing, water sports and boating, and golfing resources as good or better than anywhere in California.
