Friends Enjoying Ewing Trails

The Friends Enjoying Ewing Trails (FEET) group is leading the creation of a mixed-use trail system at Ewing Reservoir for hikers, bikers, and equestrian user groups. A popular destination for jogging, dog-walking, fishing, and enjoying the outdoors, Ewing Reservoir is currently the most popular outdoor community space in Hayfork. FEET project partners, including the Watershed Center, hope to expand that popularity by building a trail system on land surrounding the reservoir. An expanded trail system has the potential to enrich Hayfork by providing a recreational, economic, and educational resource that is centrally accessible and which showcases the beauty of Trinity County.

The initial phase of project construction will be a single-track trail that winds through the oak woodlands contouring above the reservoir and exploring the swales and hollows of the area. Future phases are anticipated to include over 30 miles of trail that will traverse ridgelines, loop through forests, and connect to USFS property to the north. We anticipate that an expanded trail system will inspire visitors and locals to recreate near this well-loved resource.

The Watershed Center is partnering with the Bureau of Land Management, Trinity County Waterworks District #1, and the following local community stakeholder groups:

While still in its early design and implementation phases, our hope is that the project will be supported through community volunteer work efforts.
