Cozy Dell Trailhead — Attraction in Ojai

I live in south Oxnard, and to me the 50 minute drive to this trail is worth it. I've never reviewed a trail before but I'm at a bar and not conversing with anyone right now. This trail is a perfect short/medium length for a quick hike. At my pace, (quick) it takes roughly 35 minutes to get to the end ("the bench") of this out n back trail. It climbs and is technical enough to challenge you if you take it fast enough. There are many switchbacks in the beginning. It's not strenuous by any means but I think it offers more competent hikers something. Side note (brag) in the Spring of '16 I hiked 60 days straight and if I recall this hike was part of that streak. If you're really looking for an extended hike or a challenge I think hitting this trail twice back to back would be good. It's easily accessible too! It's a very good hike and I think the drive to these depths of Ojai is worth it. Thanks for...

If you do choose to hike here please leave the trail better than you found it so future generations of hikers will be able...

First 3/4 mile is mostly straight uphill on switchbacks and some water damage from rains has washed out small parts of the trail. Still safe to use - watch your footing. Nice views of Ojai! There is one bench at the...
