<p>Lassen Peak is a monument to the area’s natural history and humankind’s adventurous spirit. At 10,457 feet high, it’s one of the world’s largest plug dome volcanoes. Its 1914-1917 eruptions were a driving force behind the establishment of Lassen Volcanic National Park.<br /> <br /> The parking area offers a perfect spot to capture a photo with Lassen Peak. The <a href="https://www.nps.gov/thingstodo/hikelassenpeak.htm">Lassen Peak Trail </a>also begins here.<br /> <br /> Patches of snow can linger here well into the summer months.
