Tehama County (/təˈheɪmə/ tə-HAY-mə; Wintun for "high water") is a county located in the northern part of the U.S. state of California. The county seat and largest city is Red Bluff.
Tehama County comprises the Red Bluff, California micropolitan statistical area, which is also included in the Redding-Red Bluff, California combined statistical area. The county is bisected by the Sacramento River.
The county is named for the City of Tehama. Tehama is most commonly believed to be derived from the Wintun word for "high water". Other definitions of native origin have been proposed such as "low land", "salmon", "mother nature" or "shallow". A less accepted theory proposes the origin of the name is tejamanil, shingle in Spanish.
