Lake Almanor Fall Century

Chester, CA

Type of Event: Touring

The 1st Annual Lake Almanor Fall Century has 3 different routes to choose from. Located where the scenic Southern Cascades bump into the gentle Northern Sierras, the Lake Almanor Fall Century will treat you to the beautiful fall foliage on the back roads that wander through the forests surrounding Lake Almanor and the Indian Valley. This is not a race, but a collection of tours for cyclists of all abilities. The purpose of this event is to promote recreational bicycling "under the volcano" in the shadow of Northern California's incredible Lassen Peak with scenic views around Lake Almanor. Proceeds from this event are invested in organized recreation in the Lake Almanor Basin and provide support for the Chester/Lake Almanor Chamber of Commerce. This ride offers friendly volunteers, good food, live entertainment, and the most beautiful scenery in Northern California.

CENTURY RIDE (108 MILES) - This is a relatively easy ride by century standards. It takes you around Lake Almanor and through the peaceful Indian Valley. Approximately 3,200' total elevation climb.

METRIC CENTURY (56 MILES) - This ride encompasses the entire Almanor Basin. It is recommended for the cyclist who desire a challenging loop without the distance and the bigger climbs found in the full century ride. Approximately 1,500' total elevation climb.

HALF METRIC CENTURY (33 MILES) - Take your time and enjoy the mountain vistas and the clean air. This is the ride for those wanting a nice leisurely ride lakeside around Lake Almanor, the blue jewel on the North Fork of the Feather River. Approximately 600' total elevation climb.
