Favorite Hike: Bronson Canyon/Hollyridge Trail

This hike in Griffith Park takes you right to the Hollywood Sign. Park in one of the parking lots on Canyon Dr. and walk straight to head up the steep trail. Eventually you'll pass this trail marker, 'you made it!'. Continue along the dirt path, avoiding the horses out for a trail ride. Next you'll hit a paved fire road. Continue down to the left to get a great view from under the sign.

Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday!

Favorite Hikes: The Hogback Trail at Griffith Park

 One of our favorite trails in Griffith Park is called the Hogback, a slender path that leads over a ridge, with amazing views on all sides.  This trail can be linked to from the Bird Sanctuary, Observatory, or the Glendale/Zoo side of Griffith Park.  On a clear day, it offers spectacular vistas of Downtown, Mount Hollywood, and the San Fernando Valley, and on an overcast day, it gives us the feeling that we're walking on the clouds above LA County.  We love how open it is, and often how quiet - making it a perfect respite from the city.
