Lake Britton is a scenic reservoir located in Shasta County, California. The unimproved boat ramp at this access site provides direct access to the lake for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats.
The ramp is a basic gravel and dirt launch area without amenities like a dock or paved parking. A $7 launch fee is required. Nearby Pit River Campground offers camping options within 10 miles of the site. Lake Britton is a popular destination for recreational boating, fishing, and water sports, though the water level can fluctuate depending on seasonal conditions.
Paddlers and boaters should exercise caution when launching, as the ramp conditions may vary. The lake itself is relatively large, spanning over 1,800 acres, with a maximum depth of 200 feet. Exploring the coves and shoreline by small craft can be a peaceful and rewarding experience for those seeking to enjoy the natural beauty of the area.
