Five stars for the view at the top!! So beautiful! You can see all off LA.
The hike itself is pretty challenging. Most people would be able to do this, but it has quite a few steep uphill portions. Definitely wear hiking/trail shoes.
We went in the morning, so most of the climb up was shaded, which was nice. Then we took the paved path back down to the start.
You can spending 2+ hours out here, taking about an hour to get to the main peak area with a few picnic tables. Would be a great spot for have lunch or a snack! Then there is further spots you can continue on to.
The trail is not heavily trafficked, but they were a number of mountain bikes. Keep you eyes open for them speeding down the mountain!
I would absolutely hike here again, great workout & beautiful views. (And easy parking compared to many places in LA!) read more
