My favorite place to hike in Southern California. This spot is accessible enough from anywhere in L.A. to be a morning, afternoon or all-day activity, depending on your schedule. The trails are reasonable enough for occasional hikers, with enough variety to keep more experienced trail folks and bikers happy. And the views--you'll see from downtown L.A. to Malibu to Palos Verdes and beyond. Simply gorgeous.
Pros: Incredible views
Cons: Parking
