Hayward Lake Railway Trail is a well-maintained gravel pathway that traces the northern shores of Hayward Lake, stretching between Railway Trailhead Lower Parking Lot and Hayward Lake Recreation Area. The trail is quite forested, so there is a good amount of shade and there are some rolling hills creating short ascents and descents. Bears and mountain lions have been seen here, so carry bear spray as a precaution. Keep an eye out while exploring this trail as parts of the old railway trestles can still be spotted in the forest.
