Hiking Mt. Hollywood in Griffith Park

Overview

Mt. Hollywood at 1,625 ft is the second tallest peak in Griffith Park , with amazing views of the Griffith Observatory , downtown LA, the Hollywood Sign and much more. There are many trails that lead to Mt. Hollywood, but my favorite trail begins near the Ferndell Nature Area. This trailhead has plenty of parking, and some shade, particularly in the morning. As you climb, you have options to visit the Berlin Forest and Dante’s View en route to the summit.
