Great hiking place! Amazing views. Be aware that the full stretch may be 3+ miles. We took a short cut and didn’t really follow a trail and then just walked back.

I can honestly say that I did experience something strange at this place. Me and some friends doing what teenagers do decided to visit this place. While going up the trail at night and still able to see a bit because of a full moon me and a friend decided to go a few feet ahead of the rest of the group. All of a sudden the gravel on the trail started moving like in a wavy motion. Then at the same time me and my friend turned to each other and realized we both saw the same thing. Right after we both bolted back down the trail. No drugs and we werent drunk. There was also no wind. We both saw the same thing so its not just me going crazy. Something Ive never seen and cant explain. I dont believe in the supernatural.

Good hiking condition if you go early. The sun is block if you hike up earlier in the day (8am). So its cooler and easier in terms of temperature to deal with. Good distance 2.5 miles one way. No difficult spot, just a little longer than most and narrow path. (Not shoulder to shoulder, but its not road path like potato mtn.)

This is a great hike, specially if you are starting hiking, have kids or dogs, just bring enough water and sun protection, it is very exposed, and enjoy the view, there is no restrooms.

I usually dont go out on a hike on Sundays but, I made an exception this past Sunday. The hike is 5.4 miles out and back, the hills are steep and can be tough for a beginner. Overall I was glad I went up the, the weather was amazing and the rays of the sun🌞 were really sparkling... it made the day that much brighter! Enjoy the views!

Great park with awesome ruins. There are several trails that all pretty well maintained and marked. The hike itself is pretty easy to moderate if choose to take the trails to the top of the ridge. Not too crowded either. The parking is on the street though so be aware of signs.

Also called Enchanted or Haunted Forest. In the early 1930 it was owned by Charles Cobb until he died and now belongs to the Forest Service. It’s also were the Sam Merritt Trail begins that leads to Echo Mountain, White City & Mt. Lowe railway ruins as well as Inspiration Point and other trails. Parking is free along Alta Loma & Lake Streets.

Beautiful hiking trail on the historic Cobb Estate. Beautiful iron and stone gate still stands. You can still see remnants of where a building stood. Great views of the San Gabriel valley and Los Angeles. Lots of cacti and other native plants. Gorgeously lit at golden hour. Moderate trails with several overlooks. Friendly hikers. Cute critters.

Worth a quick hike up to see some LA history. It is a dusty steep trail that is very popular so bring water and pick up your trash.
