The Witch Hazel Trail is a fun trail within Dead Man's Hollow Conservation Area, with various switchbacks. There are other trails in the area which connect to this one.

Some parts of the trails may be difficult to follow due to fallen leaves or overgrowth, so keep an eye out for the trail blazes.

Note that at the intersection with the Quarry Trail there are a few narrow steps, so you will need to get off your bike for this short part.

The Witch Hazel Trail is part of the Dead Man's Hollow Conservation Area's trail network and can be connected with multiple other trails. It features some switchbacks through the forest and once you reach the top, you will be rewarded with great views.
