The Culver City Steps are a great location for a hike on the Culver City/Baldwin Hills border in Los Angeles. The parking lot is very small, and street parking is competitive, but once you get a spot, the stairs start almost right above the road. There are several sets of stairs, as well as winding trails around the hill, giving you the option to go all stairs, all trail, or one on the way up, and the other on the way down. Once at the top, there are beautiful, 360 degree views of Los Angeles County, as well as a striking new visitor's center.
