Runyon Canyon Park Details

This 160-acre park has three different trails if you are looking to get a bit of air and exercise during your visit to Los Angeles. Most visitors opt for the full 3.3-mile trek which passes Inspiration Point and Clouds Rest. You can park yourself on a bench at the top while you enjoy the sweeping views of Griffith Park and the Hollywood sign. While the hike is incredibly scenic, it is not the most ideal spot for peace and quiet. Due to its central location, this park is very crowded on weekends with both visitors and locals.
