Head to the right at the beginning of the trail if you want less of a challenge on the front end of the hike. Head to the left for a steeper hike, but quicker ocean view payoff.
Melissa McGuireSeptember 9, 2012Best hiking trail in la. It's a great work out with steep hills it burns so good. Watch that photo enforced stop sign or you will get a $100 ticket and see yourself on video :) great views amazing!!
naveenMarch 28, 2016hike up to skull rock; careful climbing up it – you can sit in the shade up top to rest before you turn back down.
I like coming during the week, when it is less crowded. Gorgeous views throughout whole hike! I do the full loop which is 4.5 miles!
Andrew GaldiFebruary 19, 2022start with the trail on the east side so you come downhill on the part of the trail with the 300 degree views of the city!
Ali DerkhshanApril 6, 2015Favorite hiking place. I wish people would follow the signs and stop bringing dogs on the trails.
An awesome aerobic workout! The climb to the top is difficult but not impossible. And what a view!!!!
Vanessa CardonaNovember 29, 2015Great place to hike. When you reach the top there is a great view of Los Angeles- CharleneJuly 9, 2012Save yourself the $7 fee for the parking lot. Free street parking is readily available.
Jane DamMay 4, 2011No dogs allowed on the trails. Also, there's a stop sign camera in the parking lot so among other things, make sure you smile!
KT LaiJune 16, 2015The views are always worth the pain of the workout. Push yourself! You can do it!! Best trails in LA!
Try going up at sunrise - the view is incredible and no one is ever there.
Gina Blancarte-MillardApril 21, 2014Always bring money for parking. As of April 2014, parking was $7.
Push yourself to skull rock- about 3/4 mile further than the temescal ridge trail
