Suggestions for Park near El Sereno, Los Angeles

LAist • March 18, 2012"Hills on both sides of the park provide great views, which include downtown L.A., Catalina Island, the San Gabriel Mountains, the Hollywood Hills, and on clear days, San Jacinto and San Gorgonio"

HC J. • August 20, 2011So many trails to explore here, and lots of nice views of the city from up in the hills of the park.

Joseph C. • October 1, 2014FYI- In older maps, "The EastSide" goes into Echo Park & near that area. Some newer districting & names of neighborhood groups & news outlets also agree.

Melanie O. • March 28, 2012Hermon Park "in the Arroyo Seco"

Steph M. • September 11, 2010There's a smaller park on the side where the Tennis Courts are, adjacent to the pool. Great for picnicing, and walking your dog.

Keone C. • September 12, 2012Free beginner capoeira classes Thursday 6:30-7:30pm. Fun for all ages, learn martial arts, Brazilian culture, & Portuguese. Plus you'll look awesome busting out those moves at any dance/club!

LA Weekly • January 4, 2013Home to an ever-increasing bevy of hip concerts, fairs & events (including FYF Fest, HARD & The Tour De Fat) this Chinatown/Downtown adjacent park can be dusty but sublime in summer. Wear Sunscreen!

Jason • July 4, 2022Great little mid-day park. Small playground, but rarely gets crowded.

Jorge E. • October 14, 2010Great little park to play basketball. If you have younger siblings like I do it also has a mean jungle gym you can take them to. No fun getting sand in my Chucks though.
