The Lakeshore Trail is a fun, multi-use trail connecting campgrounds and resorts around Trinity Lake. An easy hike follows the western shore of Trinity Lake. The trail is four miles long, running from Clark Springs Campground through Pinewood Cove Campground (a private resort) and continues to a large turnout on the south side of Hwy 3 (free parking), just east of Stoney Creek Group Camp (although the map below shows it going only as far as Fawn Group Camp).

Ewing Reservoir Trail System and more
Hayfork, Ca, a 2.5 mile loop
Low elevation changes
Difficulty: Easy
User groups: Pedestrians only
The trail follows the shoreline of Ewing Reservoir. Access and parking is from Brady County Road 323 and Ewing Reservoir County Road 361 in Hayfork. Equestrian and bicycle use are currently not permitted. Be respectful of private property and community water source.

The Watershed Center maintains nearly 40 miles of trails annually in the South Fork Trinity River Basin. Trail maintenance ensures that people have access to our public lands and is a vital component of ecosystem protection. Proper maintenance prevents soil erosion, environmental damage, and habitat destruction, and protects water quality, ecosystem health, and fish habitat—as well as improved user experiences! One example of these projects is the Friends Enjoying Ewing Trail (FEET) project.
The Field Crew, Hayfork Youth Conservation Crew and OHV programs all play a role in implementing trail maintenance. If you are interested in trail conditions, or want to report needed maintenance along a route in the South Fork Trinity River Basin trail system, contact Tom at 530-620-4206
