The One-Eyed Witch Passage is a secret tunnel that leads from Hogwarts to the cellar of Honeydukes Sweet Shop in Hogsmeade. Harry first learned of it from Fred and George Weasley when they gave him the Marauder's Map in 1993. To gain entrance to the passage, one must give the password; Dissendium. Once the password is given, the witch's hump opens to reveal a short slide into a tunnel which leads under the school and takes about an hour on foot to get to Hogsmeade.

In Harry's third year, Sirius Black knew about the passage into Hogwarts because he was one of the Marauders who created the map.

Fred and George had used the passage to sneak supplies from Hogsmeade on many occasions. When they handed on the map to Harry, Harry used it to sneak into Hogsmeade on two occasions, until he was seen in Hogsmeade by Draco Malfoy when his invisibility cloak slipped and he narrowly missed being expelled. After that he did not use the passage again.
