1.5 hr
A wide fire road that connect the Trippet Ranch parking area to "The Hub" and Eagle Rock. Though the route is mostly well maintained, the steady climb to the Hub will leave even the fittest short of breath. You'll only get a bit of respite at mile 1, so enjoy the views and catch your breath before the final push to the top!
East Topanga Fire Road
The Hub at dusk. It looks lonely here, but this is the confluence of several trails and roads in the area and a good place to make new friends. Shade, trash, and restroom available, but no water.
