Go early and take lots of water. There will be fewer people and it will be cooler in the day. If you decide to go later in the day it can get pretty hot so make sure to take lots of water. The Trails is a cute outdoor cafe, on Fern Dell Dr., at the bottom, and great place to chill out after the long hike. A nice treat! You can get a pretty good view of the Hollywood sign going up as a bonus!

West Trail Loop

The trail starts near Dell Picnic area, near the Trails Cafe. On this wide fire road, you can choose to run or hike, but don't expect to have the trail to yourself, especially if you're heading out on the weekend. With that said, you can time your run or hike around sunset and get amazing views before you head back down to the car. On the trail up, you'll be able to enjoy views of both the obs...

Bronson Bat Caves

Who doesn't enjoy a short hike to a scenic/remote location? I know I sure do! After hearing about this spot through word of mouth and the internet, and seemingly never having the time to check it out, I honestly have to say it was a worthwhile trip. This short 0.6 out and back hike/walk to the famous Bronson Bat Caves was one not to disappoint. Once arriving and parking at Griffith Park (parki...

Hollywood Sign via Brush Canyon Trail

Getting to the parking lot near the trailhead and finding an open space can seem like the most daunting part of this whole excursion. There are free parking lots along the road to the trailhead, so keep an eye out. There are also several ways to get to the trailhead from other parking areas; I added a little distance by parking at the Griffith Observatory Parking lot and making my way to the No...

Garden of Oz

NOTE: This location is only open on Thursdays from 10am-12pm. Hours may vary depending on availablity (see below). In 1991, Hollywood resident Gail Cottman purchased a small plot beneath her Hollywood Hills home, originally planning a rose garden.
