- Hannah SMarch 15, 2017Great views of LA - from the mountains to the Hollywood sign in the distance! Quick hike compared to others but there are a lot of trails so it's easy to make it longer if you'd like.
- M AguirreJuly 16, 2013Challenge yourself and go up those stairs! (more than once to really get a workout) Also try jogging backwards up the paved road to build those glutes & legs
- __TR3VApril 6, 2013Can get a great workout here. Trail or steps or a combo of both. 282 steps will definitely get your heart rate up- but NOT for those w/ any knee "issues". Wish they had something like this in NYC
- These stairs are not for the faint of heart! If you're a first timer, take your time and don't forget a bottle of water!! Especially on hot summer days!
- Ian CabreraJanuary 7, 2016Great workout! 270 big stairs up. About 10-15 to the top. Wonderful view!! Popular spot but not congested!
- David BanMarch 27, 2014Whether you take the stairs (you'll be sweating), the winding footpath, or just drive (bring singles for self-serve parking), the view is the real attraction here.
- U.S. Environmental Protection AgencySeptember 20, 2013Here's a recent photo of Los Angeles taken from Baldwin Hills. Notice the smog hovering over the city. One might wonder what it looked like 30 years ago. Share your smog photos. Read more
- If you have knee issues just climb up and take the road or trail back down instead of the stairs. Works for me!
- Barry MorrillJuly 11, 2014You can park at Culver City Park next store and take the path between the baseball diamonds to get to the Overlook. Easier and free parking
- C BartzaApril 3, 2016Semi-intense hike with soaring views of surrounding L.A. Views and a hike, why not check it out.
- 30 min workout - Hike up and run down, either stairs or the winding road. Efficient and gorgeous!
- Challenge yourself to go up and down twice in an hour, taking a different path each time.
- ARJune 17, 2019On a clear day, you can see the ocean, the Hollywood sign, and the DTLA skyline! Getting up the hill is a workout!
- Mayumi NakamuraMarch 17, 2013Be ready for a long walk! Lots of steep steps. I recommend to ware a comfy walking shoes.
- Bryan WOctober 20, 2012Great Trail - Easy to see where you are going plus a challenging but doable incline and a huge set of trail optional stairs.
- The stairs and trail are a great workout. Supper well located and plenty of parking spots are available on the street.
- If you are an athlete, this is the place for you. Pros-the challenge and the amazing view on a clear day. Cons-men who treat this place as a pick up spot and moms with little kids...go elsewhere!
- John CassilloMay 9, 2017Easy, quick hike with a great view. Only drawback is parking (and even that isn't awful).
- Maurice SallaveJanuary 11, 2017Getting to the top is an excercise, but you do wanna stay up there and soak in the 360 beauty of LA...
- Karen CivilJanuary 20, 2015Great place to work out it's better to come between the hours of 10am to 3 pm
- Neilan TyreeFebruary 20, 2010Only my cat and I (and a few neighbors) enjoy the private views our homes have across Culver City, but you can one-up us by going to this great spot. Terrific hiking, too!
- Miss GraceApril 8, 2013FYI-Crazy guy will follow you with flash light and dog in hand, down the hill if you are there after sunset.
- Keshia BeaudionDecember 27, 2013Running shoes and a bottle of water. Best time to go is at 7am because it's not crowded and the sun is not at its zenith.
- Beautiful 360* view of L.A. at the top of the stairs. Climb those stairs, your buns will thank you. Also, watch out for snakes!!
- David BanMarch 18, 2013Want a workout? Take the stairs. Just want a view? Drive up & walk around - parking is $6.
- Emily ConlonMay 9, 2012From the bottom to the top of the stairs is approximately .15 miles of climbing.
- Karl HobartJanuary 6, 2011On a clear day, you can see from Los Feliz to Santa Monica! Truly an epic view.
- I counted 288 stairs/steps only. Not counting the step you take in between paths to reach the next set of stairs.
- Irvine "Irvinyl" AAugust 18, 2010Park at the bottom of the hill and take the stairs or hike the path...you'll save $7 and get a free workout.
