Jefferson Forest Trails
Highlight • Trail
Jefferson Forest Trails form an informal network of natural-surface paths in the Jefferson Forest area of Richmond Hill. The system includes winding singletrack routes through mixed woodland, with sandy sections, tree roots and gentle elevation changes. Popular with hikers, trail runners, and mountain bikers, the trails are not formally signed, so local knowledge and/or your offline komoot GPS route are best for navigation.

Gravel Cut Trail
Highlight (Segment) • Trail
The Gravel Cut Trail is a roughly 4 kilometre gravel-surfaced multi-use path running through Jefferson Forest that links many of the smaller forest trails. It’s relatively flat and easy, suitable for hikers, trail runners and cyclists as an access spine to the surrounding network. As a main trail in the area, it helps connect users to both technical singletrack routes and quieter wooded segments.

Creek Bed Trail
Highlight (Segment) • Trail
The Creek Bed Trail is a short, natural-surface trail within Jefferson Forest that follows a low-lying corridor near a seasonal creek. The route features sandy soil, exposed roots and a gently undulating profile typical of the area’s informal singletrack. Quieter and more enclosed than the main gravel path, it offers a shaded woodland experience within the broader trail network.
