While Los Angeles is one of the largest cities in the world, it is also home to many hiking opportunities. Here are a few of the best local hikes.
1. Griffith Park’s Bronson Canyon trail. This short hike (less than a mile round trip) is famous in part because it leads hikers to Bronson Cave, a 50-foot tunnel famously used as the Batcave in the 1960s Batman television series. Bronson Canyon has long been a popular setting for many filmmakers due to its proximity to Hollywood.
2. Runyon Canyon. This 3-mile round-trip hike is a great introduction to the Hollywood Hills and affords astonishing views at the summit, which is known as Cloud’s Rest. Hikers can see the Hollywood Sign, the Sunset Strip, and the L.A. Basin along this trek.
3. Wilacre Park. Hikers looking for a little more nature should head to Wilacre Park’s Betty B. Dearing Trail for a 2.5-mile round-trip hike with panoramic views of the San Fernando Valley. The trail also offers access to Coldwater Canyon Park and the Rainforest Trail in Fryman Canyon.
