Description

This trail ascends from Anaheim Hills Trail to the trailhead for Weir Canyon Loop Trail and then continues to the northeastern boundary of Santiago Oaks Regional park. From where it links with Anaheim Hills Trail to the trailhead, the trail is often referred to as both Weir Canyon Trail and Anaheim Hills Trail, so keep this in mind while hiking.

The trail follows the gentle topography of small hills and side canyons as it gradually climbs. There are several intersections along the trail, ignore them and stay on the main trail. At 2.8 miles the trail U-turns and heads back west and south toward a water tower. At the water tower, and the end of the trail (3.3 miles) the trail becomes Old Weir Canyon Trail.

Thanks to John McKinney, The Trailmaster, for sharing this trail description. To learn more about trails in California, check out his guides at The Trailmaster Store.

1,205 elevation gain. 19'55" pace. Regrettable detour. Lots of fauna but no animals or people to note. Very very muddy. 3.7mi — 1h 13m
