HIKE LEVEL: Level 6

DISTANCE: 5 miles round trip (Approx.)

DURATION: 2.5 Hours (Approx.)

DOG-FRIENDLY?: Although they are allowed, our hike does not recommend them.

TRAIL WALKTHROUGH:  We begin an the main trail which will lead us to the base of a hill climb.  The hill climb is a steep climb and may require some people to hold on to surrounding rocks.  It is well stepped and can be conquered at a slow rhythm.   This is a real fun part of the hike.  Once at the top, we head down the trail to a bridge.  We will then go up a small peak which will give us a great view of the Los Angeles basin and some of the burbank/Glendale area.  We will then go down to another platform for a closer view.  The rest of the trail will go in an impromptu format until we head back to the parking lot.

RECOMMENDED: Comfortable hiking shoes with good grip.  1.5 to 2 Liters of water.
