It's a great park, with a lot of trails, toilets. Keep in mind, there is an entrance fee. 🚘 parking - there is a plenty of parking spots, but you'd need to pay a fee. It's $3 for an hour with, max $12 for a day. Parking rangers accept only cash, but there is a parking meter next to them, which accepts cards. Or you could install an app and pay there. 🚾 Rest rooms - there is a separate WC for men/women with multiple stalls . It's clean and has water/soap inside 🥾& 🐕 Hiking with dog - it's a dog friendly park, with all hikes available for dogs in a leash. Be aware of rattlesnakes. Other than that hikes are nice, with a lot of shades, perfect even on a hot day

An oasis with lots to do-options including tours of the 31 room house, horseback riding, and a moderate three mile hike loop to Inspiration Point.

Great place for picnics, bbqs and hiking. Paths are rocky and uneven. Beautiful views from many areas on hike. The museum was closed, but they offer tours. Bathrooms were very clean. Water station at bathroom area. Grounds are beautiful. Not crowded on a Tuesday mid-morning. Felt safe for females hiking alone.

One of my favorite sunrise hikes in the city, and just a beautiful hike overall. Great place to bring friends, family, children, and more. Hikes for all levels so don’t think that there isn’t one for you, no matter how advanced or novice you are!!!

One of the smaller state parks, but so peaceful and tranquil. The added touch of having the horses nearby, either on the polo field or in the ring, makes your time there even better. The large grassy area is the best place to just lay down and be bathed in the nature surrounding you. The easier trails make for a hike where you are immersed in the joy of just being out in nature, not struggling to get through it. No worries about getting lost because the few trails all lead to Inspiration Point, where the ocean views are expansive. There are plenty of benches up there also, to just sit and relax. Head back down to the little museum honoring the great Will Rogers, with some cool history and pictures. The bathrooms are clean and well stocked, too. The rangers are friendly and helpful. There is a fee to park that is paid at the main entrance booth Friday through Sunday, but during the week, it's self pay at the pay station or through an app, scan code to download the app is found on signs placed in the parking lot. The all-day fee is $12, $11 for seniors, $3 per hour. I paid by credit card, but I'm not sure if they take cash. This is definitely a beautiful place to spend some time outside with family, friends, or by yourself. Enjoy!

Great hike up to the lookout! Took my 7 month old in her carrier and it was easy to do with a little one. Beautiful view, just wish it was clearer the day we went!

Had a wonderful low-key hiking experience with our 2- and 4-year-olds. They loved watching the horses grazing, being brushed, and being ridden in the stable area. We even made it about 1/2 mile up the dirt trail past the circular Goat Pen (no goats), with some pleasant morning shade on the trail. And the big grassy lawn next to the Ranch House was perfect for the kiddos to run on! Parking was $3 for one hour, $6 for two hours, and $12 for the day. There was a soccer game on the polo field so the parking lot was pretty crowded, but there was additional parking farther away. Bathrooms near the main entrance was reasonably clean.

Great park with plenty of hiking trails. Lots of parking (paid though, you can pay with the app or with credit card on site). Last time I visited the park on Sunday but trails were still not too busy. There’re some picnic tables with grills at the further corner after parking lots. Dogs are welcome but strictly on leash. Keep in mind there’s a chance to meet horses on trails.

The Will Rogers Hike in Pacific Palisades offers a scenic and invigorating outdoor experience. The trail boasts stunning views of the Pacific Ocean and the surrounding landscape, providing hikers with a refreshing escape from city life. The well-maintained path is suitable for various fitness levels, making it accessible to both beginners and seasoned hikers. The presence of informative plaques along the route, sharing insights into Will Rogers' life, adds a historical touch to the journey. Whether you're seeking a peaceful walk or a more challenging hike, Will Rogers provides a satisfying blend of nature and history.

Nice place to visit. You can go picnicking or just enjoy the fresh air because of the proximity to the ocean at high elevation. Clean easy hiking trails for the whole family. Unfortunately, some of the tours only run a few days in a week, which is Thursday through the weekend. Dog friendly is a plus.

Fairly easy hike. The view of the Hollywood to dtla and spanning to the ocean near Santa Monica/Malibu was incredible. The park closes at 6:45 pm (sunset). Although the rangers are nice and will give you a warning + wait for you, try not to leave your car in the parking lot because it will get locked in.

Great place for a local polo match. Although mostly sun exposed, there’s shaded areas around the perimeter.

We visited on a much needed “get out of the house” Saturday morning! It was much busier than expected but that may have been owed to the fact it was Will Rogers birthday 🥳 The park was extensive and a fun place to take a trail hike, and also just sit in the grass and watch the kiddos play in the sand 👧🏼 👦🏻 🌾🏇🐎🐴

It was clear day and you can see from the ocean to the mountains. A pleasant grounds for picnics and wonderful trails for hiking

Nice parc only entered first half hour from parking lot. Many nice people, excellent view on Bay. Good hiking experience, both medium and steep option possible directly from start.

This is a very nice park for a hike. You can get a good view of the city. There is a horseback riding school. They have trail rides. The Backbone Trail starts or ends here depending on perspective.

Fun 7 mile hike / trail run! Beautiful views, nice elevation . Got to get there early to avoid the LA hiking crowds of 830-9am...

I recently visited and was thoroughly impressed by the amenities and the nature offered. The park offers plenty of car parking, which makes it easy to get in and out of the park. The hiking trails were well-maintained and offered many long paths with different difficulty levels. The weather during my visit was rough for hiking, it was rainy which made it enjoyable to be hiking! I was able to take my time and explore different areas of the park, and I found plenty of beautiful views, fresh air, and peacefulness along the way. Overall, I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great hiking experience with long paths, good car parking facilities, and nice weather. It is a great spot to enjoy the nature, to disconnect and to get some exercise. I will definitely be returning soon.

What a beautiful find. Such a well maintained space and with a feeling that you are away from the big city and transported to a nice getaway. Plus they are pet friendly Love it! You can relax and have a picnic on the wide grass areas, you can take an easy walk around and view the historical buildings or can go for hike. Really to do it all !!!

Great place, close to LA, to get out and enjoy some open spaces. The tour of Will Rogers house is packed with his personal belongings and there is a small visitor center that provides a great opportunity to get to know the personality of this legendary star. The surrounding grounds are scattered with people picnicking, hiking or just taking in the amazing panoramic views of the LA basin. Hiking trails stretch off into the hills and there is a loop trail that starts and finishes near the historic stables. Highly recommended visit either for a couple hours or take your time to bring some food and sports gear and enjoy the wide open grass spaces of the large polo field grounds. There is a charge to park but totally worth it for this hidden gem.

The views were breathtaking. Unfortunately the house was not open because we arrived very early to hike the Inspiration loop trail. We did encounter a horse stable while hiking this trail. It was so cute and we got to see a few horses. They also had a section that had displayed a few historical farming equipment. I liked how educational this place was. It was an amazing learning experience. It's a great place to take your kids and your four legged friends.

We had a blast hosting a social dog hike up to Inspiration Point— the early morning fog rolling in at 9AM was beautiful. Trail is a little muddy in some spots from the recent rain, but nothing too bad. All dogs must be kept on leash, and please remember to clean up after your dog!

The hiking trails are well marked and perfect for different levels of ability and distances. The connection to Topanga State Park via the backbone trail takes you to gorgeous overviews of the city & ocean! The cool ocean breeze is always welcomed when you're on a steady incline. I absolutely love the cacti and indigenous plants in this area. So beautiful!

Fantastic state run park to enjoy a picnic or hike. Access to numerous hiking trails of varying levels of difficulty. Hiked the Inspiration Loop trail (photos included) for a decent 1 to 2 hour hike with kids. Great views of the city and Westside along with some amazing canyon views. The ground was covered in wild native plants that were flourishing with all the rain this last season. Highly recommend a day or half day trip to the park and hiking trails. Parking is $3/hour and the picnic area has charcoal grills for barbecuing.

Such a beautiful huge park that I was able to experience during the Veuve Cliquot Polo Classic.

Make a plan to do a tour of the Will Roger's House/Visitor Center (aside from all the awesome stuff there) Was a really great experience. Bill Ham was our guide, they were friendly and fun. You will need to check the schedule, it does say the day ends at 4 on weekends, but they actually do have a tour at 4pm, the list was full when I arrived and they squeezed me in bc I was '1'. The tour is a little less than an hour. The visitor's center is ideally visited in an hour, maybe a bit less, there is a 10 minute video you should time so you can see it before the tour. (for now, you will need COVID masks indoors) Will Rogers was a really interesting person. He didn't want to live off what his parents gave him and he perfected his roping (unbelievable skill seen on film.) As a youngster he went to South Africa and saw his first rodeo show by a Texan, which inspired him to be a showman - he became a movie actor... and eventually a national spokesperson who influenced Government to take care of the jobless. His political activism, style and impact is something important that we can all learn from today. You will learn all this on the tour. Oh, behind the house is Wilshire Boulevard. Make sure to ask your guide if it isn't pointed out! Thanks Foundation and Betty =Rogers for setting up this as public service.

Great park!! Lots of places to picnic and hike; ample parking. The trails, however, are not well marked and for someone who has never been it was super confusing.

I don’t know how I’ve never stopped here. Driven by many times before. There is a free tour of Will Rogers house which was donated to the state after his death. It’s a great historical site and look into the life of Americas highest paid actor in 1933. There is also great hiking on the property as well.

Small park between two neighborhoods. Good place for dogs or a picnic. I dont believe there are true trails, although there is a garden, which was closed when I visited.

A beautiful place to walk around. Easy hike with great views. Pretty Birds

Great hiking location if your looking for an easy trails. Large flat dirt roads in the front area of the park. Trails are dog friendly. There are some steep stairs depending which way you go.

This trail is moderate to hard. Highly recommended. - Huge parking lot ($12 whole day / $6 for 3 hours) - Huge flat green space for picnic - Huge flan green space for for play soccer, football, group games,…) - Hours back riding - small museum of agricultural history, old cars, … - shady trails

Must visit! The hiking trails are phenomenal, truly a beautiful place to walk through, views of the mountains, beaches, and pretty much all that Southern California has to offer, a great escape from city life for a day. Fresh air and lots of nature, come here for a great way to recharge.

Went on a rainy day but it was still incredibly scenic and uplifting (no pun intended hehe). Paid parking at the entrance lot. Well maintained trails. Difficult parts had railings. There were picnic tables at scenic spots as well. Will return on a sunny day!
