Wonderful place to begin and end a hike. Restrooms and free parking. Trail was in good condition all the way to Verdugo Peak. Always a favorite of mine and will continue to visit a few times a year. Enjoy.
Small but neat nature center with lots of taxidermy and some live animals. They also have maps a few merchandise for purchase. Excellent trails nearby too!
Cool little nature center at the beginning of several well maintained trails exploring Stough Canyon. Free parking and a short walk across a bridge bring you to the nature center. There are many informational displays where you can learn about the flora and fauna and the geological makeup of the area. The center is staffed with a California Parks person who can answer any questions and also has an activity / lecture room for class outings or events. Clean and well maintained and free. The trails are awesome and have great views of Burbank and the other side of the Hollywood Hills.
The hiking trail is intense. The mountain is steep. The views are beautiful. Worth the hike. The ambiance here is amazing. The silence and scenery is therapeutic. The diverse flowers are eye catching. The mountain is quite cold when the sun begins to set. I enjoyed myself here.
If you are up for an adventure that is close by I highly recommend you hike this trail. Overall it’s an easy hike given you are waking on an access road to the radio towers at the top of the mountains. But you will climb a good bit in elevation. So be ready to sweat! Rewarding views at the top, and the best part is.. there are not many people on this trail. It was extremely relaxing and parking was super easy too. I feel like this place is a secret even though I know it’s not. It’s just an extremely relaxing and enjoyable hike.
